Catechism Paragraph

¶ 2761

The Lord's Prayer "is truly the sumMary of the whole Gospel." 7 "Since the Lord . . . after handing over the Practice of Prayer, said elsewhere, 'Ask and you will receive,' and since Everyone has Petitions which are peculiar to his circumstances, the regular and appropriate prayer [the Lord's Prayer] is said first, as the Foundation of further Desires." 8
