Thomas’s Own Prayers During Pregnancy
Form Gift Book For Mothers to Be

 

NASHVILLE, TN—Angela Thomas began journaling her prayers during her fourth pregnancy.  And as her child formed inside, a book began to form in the pages of her journal—resulting in the birth of her first book shortly after the birth of her new daughter, AnnaGrace.  [TT1] Now a best-selling author signed to a multi-book contract with Thomas Nelson Publishers, Angela Thomas is delighted to see her first book re-released by her new publisher.  An updated edition of Prayers for The Mother to Be ($14.99, hardcover) will hit shelves in late April, just in time for shoppers in search of Mothers Day gifts. 

            Prayers for The Mother to Be combines two powerful elements to create a uniquely intimate book for expectant mothers. First, Angela’s prayers are the real deal—heartfelt words she voiced to God as she prayed for her unborn child—expressing all the emotion and dreams of expectant mothers everywhere.  Secondly, Angela’s prayers are based on scripture, with each prayer applying God’s Word to the experience of pregnancy or to her dreams for her little one.  In this blend of authenticity and spiritual insight, readers will discover a welcome companion for one of the most exciting and emotional times of life.  Whether expecting her first child or her fifth, a mother will enjoy making her nine-month journey with Angela at her side. 

            Designed for gift-giving occasions from baby showers to Mothers Day, Prayers for The Mother to Be features a printed hardcover, beautiful interior design and a ribbon for marking the day’s reading.  Each prayer is featured on a two-page spread, with scripture text following each of Angela’s entries.  Mothers can select prayers to read from five topical sections (Anticipating Joy, Desires and Questions, Strength and Comfort, Seeking Provision, Longing for Baby), or enjoy reading the prayers in order as a daily devotional. 

            Thomas Nelson Publishers is a subsidiary of Thomas Nelson, Inc., a leading publisher, producer and distributor of books emphasizing Christian, inspirational and family value themes.  Thomas Nelson Inc. is the largest publisher of Bibles and inspirational books in the English language.  For more information, visit www.thomasnelson.com.
