Introduction about blessings, then poems and prayers.

The Barefoot Book of Blessings is a short, vividly illustrated book of blessings from different cultures and faiths. “When you bless someone or something, you open your heart and mind to let good thoughts and love flow through you.” These blessings are simple and easy enough to teach your children to use as they go through their lives. There are blessings for mealtimes and as the child goes to sleep each night, blessings for starting an activity (such as school) and blessings to give to their newborn brother or sister. This book will be used a lot in my ministry. ( )
