Family Prayer for New School Year

Family Prayer for New School Year

 

290

Fresh haircut and new shoes? Check. Backpacks and lunches? Check. In the flurry of getting ready for back to school, don’t forget to take a moment to center your family in prayer. Many families have back-to-school rituals, whether a blessing said at the door or an end-of-summer feast. This Celebration of School and Learning may be shared in the classroom or at home as a family prayer. It gives children time to consider what they most enjoyed about a previous year, what they are looking forward to, and their gratitude for the people who contribute to their learning.
