Prayer

Christ our Teacher, 

You dwell deep within each of our students;

In those who struggle academically, 

and in those who excel;

In those who seek attention by acting out, 

and in those who remain silent and try to hide from notice;

In those surrounded by friends, 

and in those feeling lonely.

Give us the grace to know your presence in each of them 

and to respond to their needs as you would to ours.

Amen.
