“Great is the mystery of the faith!” The Church professes this mystery in the Apostles’ Creed and celebrates it in the sacramental liturgy, so that the life of the faithful may be conformed to Christ in the Holy Spirit to the glory of God the Father. This mystery, then, requires that the faithful believe in it, that they celebrate it, and that they live from it in a vital and personal relationship with the living and true God. This relationship is prayer.
Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2558
In our lives of faith, the act of prayer is a critical and important aspect of who we are as Catholics and simply as children of God. We participate in this act of prayer by raising our minds and hearts to the Lord in a variety of ways. Whether it be in formal, public worship or in quiet, simple moments of private devotion, all of these connect us more deeply to a God who loves us and wants us to have a relationship with him.
