Prayer

Jesus, I ask for Your help as I begin this new school year. 

Allow me to experience Your presence 

in the many blessings You put before me. 

Open my eyes to the new challenges 

and exciting opportunities that this new school year brings. 

Open my heart and mind to new friends and new teachers. 

Give me a generous spirit to be enthusiastic with my studies

 and courage to accept new opportunities. 

Help me to be attentive to my teachers 

and let me experience Your presence in my new friends. 

Jesus, inspire me to do my best this year! Amen
