Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father
As we come to the end of the term,
we thank you, Lord, for the challenges we have faced,
the successes we have achieved,
and the mistakes from which we have learned.
Be with us as we spend time with family and friends.
Give us strength and courage to do what is right
and to be true witnesses of our faith.
Keep us safe during the holidays,
to appreciate all that others do for us,
to give our time and effort in helping those in need,
and to be peacemakers within our families.
Grant us rest, joy, and renewal,
and bring us back refreshed and ready for the new term ahead.
We thank you for our classmates, our teachers, our parents,
and for a community that cares for us.
Amen.
