THE NAME, PENNY CATECHISM, IS THE MORE FAMILIAR NAME, GOING BACK MORE THAN A GENERATION, BECAUSE OF ITS ORIGINAL COST. WE ADAPTED ONE OF OUR IMAGES TO APPROXIMATE THE ORIGINAL COVER IMAGE, ALTHOUGH WE USED COLOR INSTEAD OF SEPIA. THE BACKGROUND COLOR AND FRAME SHAPE IS THE SAME AS THAT USED IN THE ORIGINAL.
Part I: PRAYERS AND DEVOTIONS
NOTE: LINKS IN BOLD MEAN PAGES THAT BELONG TO THE CHILDREN'S PRAYER DIRECTORY, WHICH IS A SUB DIRECTORY OF THAT DIRECTORY AND NOT THIS ONE AS SUCH. THE PENNY CATECHISM BEGINS WITH PRAYERS TO LEARN, SOME OF WHICH WERE ALREADY IN THAT OTHER DIRECTORY. LINKS NOT IN BOLD BELONG TO THIS DIRECTORY ONLY.
