Interfaith Resources Book of Comfort and Healing – Prayers and Inspiration from Many Faiths – Original Edition

Perfect for Hospital Chapels and waiting rooms and loved by chaplains, therapists and senior care facilities.

If you work with people who are struggling with difficulties related to physical or mental health, then you will find this booklet incredibly helpful in your practice.  The interfaith approach of this book gives almost everyone who reads it an entry-point from which to receive guidance and insights. The well-chosen selection of prayers and quotations addresses a wide range of needs and concerns from a variety of perspectives.

When made available in a waiting room, it can calm and comfort patients and prepare them to hear whatever information you have to share with them. During consultation or counseling, it can act as a focal point for exploring difficult issues. After a visit, or when left in chapels or lounges, it can comfort and support patients, family and friends in your absence.

The 210 prayers and quotations come from Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, Sikhism and the Bahá’í Faith, with a few quotations from Zoroastrianism, Taoism, and Sufism, plus a few “Interfaith” selections as well. The booklet itself is designed to be attractive, easy to carry, and, most important, affordable, with case pricing available. It is 4.75×7″ and 64 pages long with a full-color cover and dark blue text.
