Listening to the child with respect and humility was the foundation of educator Maria Montessori’s work. We invite you to read through these posts from our collection of art, theological comments and prayers of children, and share your own reflections. Considering these responses together may help us deepen our understanding of the mysteries of the child and God.
Prayer by Thomas, 7, (whose grandmother had recently died) after the presentation of the Origin of the Eucharist:
God, I will never leave you out of my heart.
And I will do the same thing for you, Jesus.
When I die I will see you for the first time and when I see you I will be so glad that I will hug you as if you were my mother.
