How does parrotfish poop make sand? And what does that have to do with God's promise to Abraham?
Introduce children ages 9-12 to the epic story of salvation history—from Creation, to Christ, to today—through Bible stories that take place at sea, and help them experience the Word of God in a whole new way! This one-of-a-kind devotional by Sister Orianne Pietra René Dyck, a Daughter of St. Paul, teaches children how to pray with God’s word and encounter God in his creation through 40 days of Scripture reflections, fun sea facts and trivia, profiles of the saints, prayer and journaling prompts, and practical ways to live the faith in daily life. Dive Deep gives children two different reflections for each Bible story, so they learn how God can speak in many ways through his word. Fun sea facts and trivia shed additional light on the meaning of scripture and celebrate the harmony between faith and science. On the last day of their journey, children can write their own reflection—and begin a new voyage that will last a lifetime!

Orianne Pietra René Dyck is a religious sister with the Daughters of St. Paul. Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and raised in the Ottawa Valley, she converted to the Catholic faith at the age of twelve. Despite being allergic to fish, she loves the sea! One of her favourite ocean memories is of stumbling upon wild sea lions teaching their baby pups how to swim off the coast of Peru. A former teacher and youth leader, Sister Orianne is passionate about helping youth discover the same Jesus who changed her life. Sister Orianne currently works in social media ministry. Dive Deep is her first published book.
Romi Caron is a professional illustrator who has created art for over 90 published books. She enjoys sharing her love for art by giving special art courses to students in schools in the Ottawa/Gatineau region. She was born in communist Czechoslovakia, where God “did not exist,” and simply wearing a cross could mean losing the chance to study or a job. Romi had to “dive very deep,” and in very dangerous waters, to discover the existence of God and her faith. Her discovery gave her the courage to cross the ocean and establish herself in Quebec, where she lives with her husband and three sons. The beautiful nature of the Gatineau region brings her everyday inspiration.
