Heavenly Father, We thank You for the gift of this past school year - for the lessons learned, the challenges overcome, and the growth we have experienced. As the school bells ring for the last time and we step into the slower, warmer days of summer, we ask for Your continued guidance.
Please grant our students rest, refreshment, and joyful adventures. Protect them in all their activities, keeping them safe in body, mind, and spirit.
Pour out Your patience and energy onto parents, guardians, and educators who tirelessly support our children. Fill their reserves so they can enjoy these months of connection and laughter.
Draw us all closer to You, Lord, no matter where our summer travels or routines take us. May this season be a time of peace, restoration, and gratitude. In Your holy name, we pray. Amen.

Heavenly Father, we lift up in prayer today our brothers and sisters who have gone before us, sacrificing their own lives for the protection and safety of others. We are grateful for their service. May they inspire us to live selflessly in our own lives, as Christ calls us to do. In Jesus’s name we pray. Amen.

Confirmation Prayer
Lord, You send out Your Spirit to touch the hearts of all people,
so that they may believe in You and in Jesus whom You sent.
Look kindly on all candidates for Confirmation
as they listen to Your voice.
Open their hearts to Your Spirit and bring to fulfillment
the good work that You have begun in them.
As we prepare these children for Confirmation,
make each of us an instrument of Your love.
Teach us to appreciate what is holy in others,
and to be patient with what we do not understand.
Deepen our faith in the Gospel
and help us to pass it on by our example.
We pray that You will continue to guide us and sustain us.
Through Christ our Lord, Amen.
