The Barnabas in Schools Prayer
Jesus, you chose a child as a model for adult maturity and of God’s presence among us. Thank you for our schools with their teachers and children.
Together may they create: safe places for lives to flourish: happy places for wonder and discover; hopeful places of peace and healing; stimulating places of learning and laughter; places where everyone feels valued and respected; places that offer security and stability to all; places where both old and young can find purpose and direction in life.
Amen
