Prayer

Prayer for the end of the school year
At the end of this school year we give thanks to God:
For all the teaching and learning
that has taken place in our school,
both in and out of the classroom,
For the talents and gifts that have
been shared and the challenges that
have been faced;
For the burdens that have been
lifted and the hurts that have been healed;
For the respect and care that has been given.
We give thanks for the friendships
that have just begun and for those
that have grown.
For the faith that has been lived in
our daily struggles,
For the hope that has lifted our
hearts on the dark days
And for the love that has kept us going.
We give thanks for the community
that we are, and we ask you Lord -
Bless our students as they sit their exams:
may your Spirit inspire them
with confidence and calmness
Bless our families as we take our holidays,
may our time together leave us
with memories to cherish.
Pour our your love on us that
we may return renewed and refreshed
to continue our journey together.
We make this prayer through Christ our Lord.
Amen
