**SITKA —** In a video published on the Diocese of Alaska's Facebook page, Abp. Alexei offered [the following advice](https://www.facebook.com/reel/1289715752625865) on how families can enrich their prayer lives:

> If a family prays together, the household becomes a little tower in that vineyard. How do we bring this home? We return fruit to the Master in this season.  
>  
> We build the altars in our home. We establish a prayer work. We light a lamp and each day we offer ten minutes to God.  
>  
> We open the Holy Gospel. We read a few verses from it.  
>  
> Every morning: The trisagion hymn, the Creed, Psalm 50, and short prayers from your prayer rule.  
>  
> The prayers every evening, the Jesus Prayer, and an examination of conscience.

May this counsel from Abp. Alexei bless our readers' homes!
