back to school prayers

from 8/26/12 worship service

Offertory prayer:  God of the alarm clock the school bell, the ring tone, the honking horn of traffic, beyond all of this noise, let us hear You.  God of the back pack, the iPad, the white board, the textbook, beyond all of these sights, let us see You.  God of the ages, God near at hand, let us serve you with all of our being, all of our gifts--material and spiritual--so that others may hear You and see You.  May these gifts go to that end.  In the name of Jesus.  Amen.


Benediction:  May the Lord Jesus who goes this journey with us strengthen you to bear all things, believe all things, hope all things, endure all things with faith, hope, and above all, love.  Go in peace.  Amen.
