Dear praying friend,
We know you'll be praying over the current situation as we are all painfully aware of the effect of this crisis on our children.
We hope these prayers are helpful.
- Lord, please help school heads and staff as they manage the many complicated logistics involved as children come back. May they find ways to adapt and reconnect with them. Amen.
- We remember children affected by poverty, unhappy family life, abuse of any kind, lack of stimulus and mental health problems. Help them to begin to thrive again. Amen.
- O God, please grant wisdom to those in authority as they plan ahead and make decisions on many issues. We intercede for children to be able to make up for what has been lost.
Amen.
