A Child's Guide to the Psalms is designed to help children bring the beauty of the
psalms more fully into their lives. Small and easy to hold, with enriching illustrations, the guide is divided into several color-coded sections:
- What Are the Psalms?
- Themes Found in the Psalms
- When Do We Read the Psalms?
- Psalms for Children
- The Psalms in the Divine Liturgy
- Glossary
This guide is written for children ages five to twelve. The very young child will learn themes found in the psalms through the illustrations that accompany the text. For the older child, the guide explains how the psalms are found in the life of the Church. It includes a selection of twenty psalms to read, chant, and memorize; plus, there is an extensive glossary filled with terms and vocabulary often heard throughout the liturgical year.
We wish you and all the children of the Orthodox Faith continual growth toward Christ as we all seek to be lights to the world and as we help each other toward the Kingdom of heaven!
