We had our annual Prayer Ride for Putnam County Public Schools & Gatewood School today. We delivered school specific supplies, and a check to each public school for specific needs in the Nurses Clinic & Counselor’s Office. Then invited the administrators to join us in prayer. Would you join us in praying for our school system?
God, grant wisdom and understanding to the public officials, school boards,
superintendents, administrators and more who are juggling so many concerns
and challenges for this coming school year. Shower them with creativity and
clarity in all of the work they must do… SILENT PRAYERS
Lord, please have mercy on the parents and other caregivers of students who
face difficult situations and schedules. Help those who must juggle the task of
providing for their families and their children’s need for education. Bring order out
of confusion and hope from despair… SILENT PRAYERS
Heavenly Father, help students of all ages in the coming days, weeks and months.
Encourage those who suffer from a lack of social interaction. Empower those who
need help with online learning. Encourage those with special needs. And please
keep them all safe and healthy while they learn… SILENT PRAYERS
Lord, you know the situations faced by teachers and staff at this time, some of
whom must enter the front lines, others who must learn new ways of teaching, and
still others who must cope with personal struggles and uncertainty. Please come to
them and strengthen them, granting fresh ideas and a renewed passion in their
workplaces and work challenges… SILENT PRAYERS
God, hear our prayers for school system personnel facing even more challenges
than usual in their lives and livelihoods: custodial staff, cafeteria staff, bus
drivers, and others. Provide for the unemployed and under-employed. Help those
who are struggling. Grant relief to those who are overworked and encouragement
to those who are overwhelmed… SILENT PRAYERS
For all of the above, Lord, please protect and preserve them physically,
emotionally, and mentally. Keep them safe and healthy; increase their strength and stamina now and in the future, in Jesus’ name, AMEN.
