It is the start of a new school year and we find ourselves in extraordinary times.
So much has changed in recent months and every man, woman, child and teenager has been deeply affected by global events since last winter. We can all find ourselves in a challenging position of being unsure of how we might reach our true potential. Children and young people’s confidence and self-esteem may have been particularly compromised lately.
We are invited by Pray for Schools, with whom FCG and others are diligent and prayerful partners, to pray for our schools for pupils fulfilling their potential.
Let us pray:
‘May He grant your heart’s desires and make all your plans succeed.’
Psalm 20:4 (NLT)
Father, please help children to benefit from all aspects of school life: the environment and ethos, academic learning, music, arts, sport and provision for spiritual and emotional well-being.
Amen
