"A prominent American judge was asked what we as citizens of the countries of the world could do to reduce crime and disobedience to law and to bring peace and contentment into our lives and into our nations. He carefully replied, 'I would suggest a return to the old-fashioned practice of family prayer.'
"As a people, aren't we grateful that family prayer is not an out-of-date practice with us? There is no more beautiful sight in all this world than to see a family praying together. There is real meaning behind the oft-quoted 'The family that prays together stays together.'"
President Thomas S. Monson, "Come unto Him in Prayer and Faith," Ensign, Mar. 2009, 5.
We didn't want to leave anyone out of family prayer, so we invited the caregivers to join us.
My little boy said things only Heavenly Father could know about my problems.
