tell us about ur home shrine and who is it to and any pics would be good and go in to detail about thanx god bless
this sounds very nice to me and i care about ur prayer place thank u 4 sharingThis isn’t really a “shrine” but it works for me.
There is about 3 feet of wall space between the foot of the twin bed and a wall of floor-to-ceiling bookcases in the room my grown daughter left behind. In that space is a tall jewelry chest about 36 inches high by about 15" wide. Above it is a framed print of Bouguereau’s dramatic Pieta, and above that a substantial French bronze crucifix dating from about 1916. There is an icon stand and a candle on top of the jewelry chest. I rotate the icon according to the season or whim. A small, comfortable chair faces the chest, and beside the chair, next to the bookcase, is a bucket which holds prayer books, my journal, and the current issue of Crisis, CWR, and other literature. On the other side is a small table just big enough for a cup of tea and a rosary . . . Very cozy; not very monastic, but some pretty serious praying gets done there. :yup:
I understand that nobody cares whether I have a prayer space in my house but just wanted to contribute to show that it doesn’t take much to give you a privileged place for prayer – and it doesn’t have to be architecturally separate or excruciatingly devotional. An icon or statue and a candle on the dresser would do the job. I think the key is to keep the space clear of other junk.
