"Dear God,
As we start this new school year tomorrow , we lift our children up to you.Please fill their hearts with excitement and calm their worries with your love.Go before them today, keep them safe in the classrooms and hallways, and help them feel your presence everywhere they go.Give them curious minds to learn, courage to try new things, and kindness to share with their teachers and friends.Bless their going out and their coming back home.In your name, we pray.Amen."
