Back to School Prayer

Father,

We thank you for the opportunity

to begin this new school year,

 

and we ask that you bless

the students, staff, and student families

that make our schools a great place.

 

We pray that you will guide us in your ways,

and strengthen our school communities,

 

so that we will seek your will

in everything that we do,

and love others as you love us.

 

We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

Amen.
