Little Books of the Diocese of Saginaw is a nonprofit organization dedicated to encouraging people to pray and spend some quiet time with the Lord during the liturgical seasons.
Conceived and developed by the late Bishop Ken Untener of the Catholic Diocese of Saginaw, Michigan, the Little Black Book debuted in 1999 as a Lenten reflection and quickly became a staple for individuals and congregations throughout the midwest. As demand grew, so too did Little Books, which now includes the Little Blue Book for the Advent/Christmas season and the Little White Book for the Easter season, along with titles for Stewardship and children, and other writings.
Each Little Book is faithfully written to correspond with seasonal themes and features daily scriptural-based lessons along with interesting facts about Catholic traditions, saints, notable people and symbolism.
Today millions of people rely on Little Books to enhance their prayer practice and provide spiritual inspiration. All proceeds from Little Books go toward serving the needs of the people and communities of the 11-county Diocese of Saginaw.
This was chosen by our prayer group leader to read and discuss for the next three weeks in our prayer circle group. I love these little books and this particular one was golden. It spoke to me so much I don’t know how I’m going to choose only one story to share on each week. I can’t wait to hear how the reading spoke to others in our group.
