Opening Prayer for a New Academic Year

Posted on February 18, 2011

Prayers

Heavenly Father, we acknowledge the past academic year’s achievements through your blessings. We thank you for granting successes to our endeavors. This academic year, may you bestow anew your abounding love and generosity for all the challenges that would come our way. We know that these are not problems to worry about, but challenges to be hurdled that would develop us into stronger and better mentors.

We fervently pray also for our administrators, deans and staff members of the different colleges, that they may fulfill your will through their vision and mission. May they realize that education goes hand in hand with a heart and a conscience, and that the ultimate goal in life is to serve you, through other people.

We also pray for our students that may they see you in their mentors and school officials. May students, faculty members and administrators share a common vision of Christian learning and love. We pray for all these in your mighty name. Amen.
