For Christian Schools
Lord God,
Thank you for the blessing of Christian schools, where students receive so much more than just an exceptional education; they flourish in faith. Through their Christian education, they learn and discover through the lens of faith, seeing the abundance of your goodness all around them. In addition to being prepared to thrive in the workplace and be solid citizens in their community, students grow emotionally and spiritually, finding their identity and purpose in you and your Word. They don’t simply learn lists of how to be better people, but are actually changed by the good news of you being the best for them, and sacrificially giving yourself in death so that they might live – here and eternally.
With that security and faith-fueled confidence, they are well-prepared to navigate the uncertainty of life, bear up under suffering, and find genuine joy in loving you by serving their neighbor. Thank you for those who teach selflessly in Christian schools, for those who support them financially and prayerfully, and for all who entrust their children to Christian schools as partners in providing the best possible education anyone can receive: one rooted in you.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
