Back to School Prayer

As a new school year begins,
we ask your blessing on all students, teachers and families.

Fill each classroom with peace,
each mind with curiosity,
and each heart with kindness.

Be with those who feel nervous or uncertain.
Grant them courage, calm and confidence.

Guide teachers in their calling and parents in their support.

May this year be one of learning, growth and grace.

Through Christ our Teacher,

Amen.
