Blessing For Students
Dear Lord,
We thank you for these motivated young minds, ready to explore a new school year. Bless these students with ears to hear, eyes to see, hearts that are soft, and the courage to act. Help them to be deliberate and purposeful, slow to judge, quick to serve, and generous in helping one another. Grant that they may grow in wisdom, stature, mercy, and love. As students return to the Notre Dame campus and campuses across the globe, may they always feel your spirit and the love of a mother who is ever near.
Amen.
