Give Us This Day: About the Cover

Give Us This Day provides a resource not only for prayer and lectio, but for contemplative and compelling Christian art. Saint John’s Abbey monk and publisher of Give Us This Day, Br. Ælread Senna, has begun a series in which he offers more insight into the images adorning Give Us This Day’s cover.

This past month’s February edition, for example, features a depiction of the Presentation of Jesus. Visit Br. Ælread’s blog here to read more!
