Comfort in prayer
These twelve pictures are part of a set that has been reproduced as postcards. They are available as a set (but not individually) in the pack called: PRAYER POSTCARDS: HOPE AND ENCOURAGEMENT.
Three of these pictures ('The Soul Like a Cavern', 'The Abyss', and 'The Littlest Prayer') are also available as INDIVIDUAL POSTERS (A3). The postcard set was originally produced in 2001, for use in hospital chaplaincies in the U.K. To see larger versions of each picture, click on the thumbnail picture within an exhibition.
