Let’s bow our heads and place ourselves in the presence of the Lord.

Dear God, we are gathered here before you to map out plans for this academic year.

Grant us the wisdom and spiritual enlightenment to be able to come up with plans that are beneficial to all of us.

Make us realize that we have the moral responsibility to render service to the best of our ability.

Give us the strength to be able to overcome all the challenges that may come our way.

This we ask through Christ our Lord Amen.
