• Prayers for the New Academic Year

  Fri 15 Sep 2023

  Prayers we have shared in Collective Worship this week:

   

  New School Year Prayer

   

  At the start of the new year at school we pray for all teachers, wider school staff and learners.

  May they start each day clothed in your light,

  May teachers and wider staff see the needs of each individual and remain patient and insightful and true to their calling.  May they find rest and encouragement and chance to stay fresh and keep learning as well as giving.  May they know that, even when things seem hard, they are making a lasting difference and giving people the tools to change the world for the better.

  Jesus, clothe them in your light.

  May learners see the opportunities before them and be blessed with teachers who find the right way for them to learn.  May they be compassionate and supportive to those who learn alongside them.  May they grow in confidence and wisdom as well as just knowledge, and inspire them to use what they learn to help others.

  Jesus, clothe them in your light.

  May we also keep on learning, never resting on our laurels but open to new opportunities, questioning and searching, and seeking to know you more.  May we seek out the dark places where your light is needed.  Grant us the courage to step forward and make a difference.

  Jesus, clothe us in your light.

  And your peace become deeper in us each day.

  Amen.
