Midweek prayer

As students, staff and teachers return to classrooms, some in-person and some remotely and some a combination of the two, we pray for their safety and well-being.  May the ability to learn and teach and support thrive in the midst of challenging circumstances.  May parents, families and guardians be granted some measure of peace in the midst of so much that is new and different and hard.  We pray that this endeavor we call education will be a gateway to wisdom and kindness and continuing care for each other.  In your holy name, hear our prayer.  Amen.
