Blessing of the Backpacks



Blessing of the Backpacks
Prayer for Re-entry into School 
September 13, 2015 

Lord Jesus Christ, as a boy, you studied and learned, and astounded your teachers in the Temple.   

Bless these school materials and the backpacks to carry them.  Help them be for these students symbols of the wonders of the world they are to learn about.   

Bless these students with sharp minds, good memories, and industrious habits, and help them do their best in their studies and their common life with their fellow students and teachers.   

Protect them from laziness, distraction, and bullying or being bullied.    

Keep alive their joy in your creation, and make them prosper in all their good undertakings. 

In your gracious name we pray,  AMEN.
