Prayer Focus

Praying together keeps us strong, united, and focused on God’s leading for us!

This week’s focus: Back to School

For Albuquerque and many other cities, this week marks “Back to School” time. For those with children of school age, the week is met with mixed emotions—some joy, some trepidation, always a sense of change and progress. Prayers for all the students from pre-school to college that this might be a year filled with learning and a sense of accomplishment and friendship and kindness and blessings. May they all thrive in an atmosphere of encouragement and support. Not just this week… pray for our students all year long.

Those without children in that age group may notice little, but wait…what about the active school zone crossings—a good sign to slow down, stop when directed, and pray for the children going into or out of that school, also giving thanks for those wonderful dedicated crossing guards. And, do you know if your neighborhood school could use extra school supplies or maybe some volunteer help? Lots to think and pray about.

Pray for the teachers and professors and administrators. Prayers that their jobs are ones that excite them and ones that are supported by others, and may they find themselves both challenged and fulfilled. Continue to pray throughout the year for those who guide and shape the minds of our children.
