One way to get men to pray more

The Telegraph reports that a new Prayer book issued by the Catholic Truth Society encourages couples to pray together before sex. Thinking this is one way to get men excited about prayer!!

So to save you a few quid and to get you started here is the suggested prayer.

The prayer

Father, send your Holy Spirit into our hearts. Place within us love that truly gives, tenderness that truly unites, self-offering that tells the truth and does not deceive, forgiveness that truly receives, loving physical union that welcomes. Open our hearts to you, to each other and to the goodness of your will. Cover our poverty in the richness of your mercy and forgiveness. Clothe us in our true dignity and take to yourself our shared aspirations, for your glory, for ever and ever.
