Blessing of the Backpacks August 24, 2008
|
"We rejoice with excitement and anticipation for the new school year. New beginnings are always an appropriate time to remember our focus on christ, thanking him for his guidance, inspiration, and grace. Today we pray for the Lord's hand in the lives of these children. May God bless all the students, teachers, administrators, and staff of our local schools." |

"Grant that teachers, administrators, and other staff may be a means of grace and learning to their students this year." |
|
| "May this year be full of promise for students and teachers alike: a promise of new beginnings and fresh starts..." |
|
"...A Promise of friendships with classmates and colleagues that refresh the spirit and honor God..." |
|
"Bless now these backpacks and the children who carry then: That with hearts enlightened by the Holy Spirit they may grow in knowledge and faith, to worship and serve you from generation to generation." |
