Pa+Henry's+Prayer



I like the prayers and religious references in Mules and Men. “Pa Henry’s Prayer” on page 25 is a good insight to their cultural and the role religion has in their culture. The prayer isn’t scripted or memorized. He’s talking to God like they’re friends. It’s open and honest. Also on page 139, “The Sermon by the Traveling Preacher” is good too because that also feels like a natural, not scripted translation from Genesis.
