Back to School Blessings

Please pray for teachers, staff, and students returning to school this week.

Eternal God, father of our Lord Jesus Christ, our great teacher and savior, bless these your servants as they begin the school year. Your Son was once himself a child learning and teaching in the temple. Grant that all who enter into places of learning as students and educators this year be filled with your grace and heavenly wisdom—that all their efforts be directed by your Holy Spirit, and work to your praise and glory. Amen.
