Next week a collection of Lutheran Hymn and Prayer books will be closing from Community Pricing.  PLEASE BID!!!

In my opinion, the star of this collection is Pastor Loehe's collection of prayers entitled "Seed Grains of Prayer".  It is one of the truly classic Lutheran prayer book collections out there.  Years ago I started a pb of it, but had some difficulty with formatting it, and well - somehow it went off to the side of the desk, so to speak.  I rejoice that it will be coming to Logos in an official version.  To get a hint of it, attached is the beginning of this book.  Please order the official version and make it cheaper for all of us!

    Thanks for taking time to explain this resource some more. I especially appreciate the start of the book for it gave me a good idea of what it was like. I was struck by the creative way the Lord's Prayer was crafted as an aid to reflect and pray it though. Your post caused me to place my bid which I had not yet done.

    Edit: More accurately I should say "raise my bid" to make it count.

    Ken!                        *smile*                                Blessings and Peace!                   Thanks for your post; and I have indeed made my bid!

                  However, Pastor Loehe's Work is so "classic" and so "Lutheran" that I am making a PB of the partial version you have shared with us ..... to use until the Logos Official Version Resource is finished!  What a joy is this book, eh?!?!

    EDIT:    BTW - My Word Document is 60 pages.           Would that be, please, half way ??    3/4   ??

                                  Also, I don't use my German learning very often; and I should.   Could you share with us, please, if this Opus is found auf Deutsch somewhere is a public domain work.               Thanks in advance!

    By original pages, I gave you the first 200 pages.  The print edition is a bit over 600, but that is including the index.  The english I used is from https://archive.org/details/seedgrainsofpray00lh . A quick reference from Wikipedia gives http://books.google.com/books?id=lcYCAAAAQAAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false as a source for the German.

    Hi, Ken!        *smile*                Just checked again.     I have 60 pages -- 24,845 words in the document from you that I downloaded ...

                It's getting late, so maybe I'll just go with that and sort it out later!                                 Thanks very kindly indeed!            *smile*

    Yup - if you printed out the file I gave using MS Word, it would indeed be 60 pages.  However, the original has really small pages, and the page markers I tagged have page 200 starting in the last prayer...  So you have "all" of it - or rather all that I provided as an appetizer!
