Prayer for Catholic Schools

Thank You, Father, for the blessing of our Catholic Schools. We are grateful that our faith is taught in our schools, and that we can worship and pray as a school community. Help us to grow in Faith, Hope and Love as we are taught about You, Your Church and our own salvation.

Thank You, Jesus, for the blessing of all the parishes, priests, and Catholic School supporters that make our school possible. We are grateful for the long tradition of committed Catholics who began our schools and preserved it through the years, and also for those who work for its future. Help us to follow their example of Service and Generosity when it is our turn to preserve the Faith.

Thank You, Holy Spirit, for the blessing of our parents, principal and teachers. We are grateful for the grace and wisdom You give them as they teach and guide us. Help us to grow in our understanding of the world around us and grant us the strength to make right choices when the world challenges what is right and holy.

 Amen.
