DAY 1

MORNING PRAYER 

Loving God, 

We praise you for the wonders of the world you have gifted to us. 

We give thanks for the air we breathe, the water we drink, and for all living creatures. 

We praise you for all you have provided for us through your creation 

and we thank you for the role you have given us as caretakers of that gift.  

Be patient with us as we learn to act in ways that are better caretakers of the earth.  

Thank you for this week when we gave thanks for a school 
where we can share and grow in our faith.  
Help us to see joyful hope in ourselves, our families, our school, and our earth.  
Through Christ our Lord.  

Amen
