We have a variety of PrayerCubesTM that are available. They are simple tools for individuals and families to encourage prayer and be reminded of scripture.
Using wooden cubes to learn about prayer is an old tradition dating back to the mid-1600's in Europe. In those days, not many people could read and there were not many books available to the general public. Carving out simple prayers with pictures and symbols to help teach prayer was common.One of the most famous stories surrounding prayer cubes comes from Germany. Oberammergauer and their Passionsspiele tells of the Passion of Jesus Christ to the whole world, every ten years dating back to the early 17th century. The Cubes are a family reminder of why the residents of this little town have participated in this event for over 400 years.
Children's ministry, First Holy Communion, family prayer, a welcoming gift, for a summer camp ministry, a friend needing a reminder that she is special, on the desk at work, at the kitchen table, on the nightstand - so many different ways to offer a simple tool to encourage simple prayers and meaningful conversations as we walk and talk with God.
Our PrayerCubesTM are made here in the USA at our facility in Frisco, Texas. They are 2 1/2 inches square, a great size for a table, desk or night stand. They are all natural wood and have NO lacquers, paints, stains or ink. We use our Laser Engraving machine to engrave INTO the wood.
There are a number of different wooden blocks on the market now. Some of those cubes are less than 2" which makes them harder to read and the smallest ones (1.5" or less) can be dangerous for toddlers. Others have a lacquer finish which wears off over time. Nearly all of them use a silk screening process to manufacture in bulk. Unfortunately, we've found that the silk screening and artificial finish wears off over time. We wanted to make a quality item that could be handed down for generations, so our cubes are made to a higher standard. Like the Old World tradition, we integrate graphics with prayers as part of the design of our PrayerCubesTM . We use our Laser Engraving machine to carefully burn into the wooden cube for a lasting and useful gift.
