Passport of Prayer MemorizationChildren of Light Curriculum

Passport of Prayer Memorization

Children travel symbolically from Earth to Heaven through prayer, collecting treasures that stay with them for life: Agpeya prayers, psalms, Gospel readings, litanies, and daily prayer practice.

Eleven passports, one steady path of prayer

There are 11 passports in this journey, and each passport takes children a step closer to Heaven. They are meant to be prayed, memorized, recited, stamped, and carried forward as children grow in their connection with God.

The first passport is the Trinity Passport, beginning with Earth. Each completed level earns a stamp or signature, and children continue upward through the full journey.

How can I participate?

Start with the Trinity Passport and move steadily through the full prayer journey.

5 Steps
1

Receive

Get your copy of the passport from your Sunday School servant.

2

Memorize

Learn each level completely, with no stops and no mistakes.

3

Pray

Use it daily. It is more than a memorization book; it is a prayer book.

4

Recite

Recite completed levels in class on assigned recite days.

5

Continue

When a passport is complete, ask for the next one and keep going.

From Earth to Heaven

Each passport is a symbolic travel stop. Children begin on Earth with the simplest daily prayers, then continue upward through water, air, clouds, sun, stars, space, planets, universe, paradise, and finally Heaven.

How the journey works: children pray, recite, receive a stamp, and then continue to the next stop in the passport path below.

1. Travel

Earth to Heaven

The child moves through creation toward communion with God.

2. Vehicle

Prayer

Each memorized prayer becomes part of a living daily Agpeya.

3. Passport stamp

Recitation

Servants stamp or sign completed prayers after in-class recitation.

What is learned at each stop

The route is symbolic, but the growth is practical: every stop adds prayers that children can carry into daily morning, evening, and sacramental life.

Each e-copy opens as a PDF. Families can print, collate, and use the passports in their daily prayer routine.

How to use Prayer Passports

Pray daily

Use the passport as part of each child’s daily prayer rhythm.

Collate them

Each passport is meant to be collated to form the child’s Agpeya.

Build gradually

Once a passport is learned, add the next passport into the daily routine.

Separate as needed

The Trinity and Liturgy passports may be kept apart for morning and evening use.

Important reminders

All levels must be recited in class to the servant.

No skipping levels. Earth 1 comes before Earth 2; Water 1 comes before Water 2 and Water 3.
