Portals of Prayer is a quarterly publication of the Concoria Publishing House of St. Louis, Missouri, the denominational publisher for The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod with a circulation of almost 900,000 copies each quarter. The 4" x 6" publication consists of one-page daily devotions based upon a verse of Scripture along with suggestions for further reading of a Scripture and of a Psalm. Each devotion closes with a brief prayer. A separate section features prayers for the days of the week and occasional prayers covering liturgical and civic calendar events as well as for various situations. Each issue has a short prayer order that can be used by individuals, families, and small groups. Along with the prayer order are printed out Luther's Morning and Evening prayers, and meal-time prayers.
