As students and educators return to classrooms this week, we hold them in prayer. đź’›
May our students walk into this new school year knowing they are loved, valued, and never alone. May they meet new friends with kindness, notice those who need a place to belong, and have courage when the days feel hard.
May our teachers, administrators, support staff, and all who care for our children be given patience, wisdom, energy, and compassion for the important work they do each day.
And may all of us remember that wherever we go—classrooms, hallways, playgrounds, offices, buses, and beyond—we have opportunities to see one another as neighbors and to share God’s love.
God, go with our students and educators into this new school year. May they know that you are a friend who never leaves them. Amen. 🎒📚❤️
