Education Sunday
Date: 11th September 2022
Today is Education Sunday across many Christian denominations and groups.
Dear Lord, Thank you for the gift of Catholic schools.
Thank you for all those who have given their talents to educating our young people.
Through the challenges they encounter each day, lead them to an ever deeper appreciation of the sacred duty to which you have called them.
Thank you for all those who contribute to the efficient running of our schools; support staff, kitchen staff, maintenance staff, governors and chaplains.
We thank them for their hard work and dedication.
Thank you for all those who lead our Catholic schools.
May they be people of integrity so that they can be witnesses as well as teachers.
We pray that the schools they lead will become places where our young people can experience your love in their lives.
Thank you for our pupils.
May your love strengthen and nurture them through the influence and example of those who care for them.
We pray that through their time at school they will flourish and grow to discover who you have called them to be.
We make this prayer through your Son, Jesus Christ, our teacher and our Lord,
Amen
Prayer from Catholic Bishops Conference of England and Wales
