If you couldn’t be present in-person for the Blessing of the Backpacks on Sunday, there is a backpack tag waiting for you at the church! A prayer to begin the school year:

  • God, our friend who is always with us, be with us as we begin a new school year.
  • Be with us as we ride the bus.
  • Be with us as we learn at home and in our school buildings.
  • Be with us as we walk.
  • Be with us as we buckle seat belts, zip-up jackets, and tie shoes. However we get there, and whatever we wear, bless this journey into something new.
  • For the grown-ups going back to school, With-Us God, be with them too.
  • Thank you for our teachers, support staff, bus drivers, helpers, caregivers, and leaders, and for all they do to help us learn and grow.
  • God, our friend who’s full of wonder, bless us with minds and hearts ready to learn!  Amen.
