“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.” 1 Peter 4:10 

God, we are grateful for a new week and a chance to use the gifts you have given us, and to the work you have called us to as we support our schools. Be with each church coordinator, volunteer, leader, pastor, and minister as you guide and lead them into meaningful partnership. Give them your vision for our students and may they be overflowing with grace to serve as our schools show us opportunities.  

Lord, point us to where you would have us go and what you would have us do. Give us a vision for a community gathered in support of children, families, and schools that honors you in the way we love and serve others. Help us come together for the glory of your name to help everyone in our community experience the fullness of the calling you’ve placed in their lives. How good it is to see the Body of Christ united in love of our schools and all those that cross through the doors, and may this glimpse of Kingdom unity invite more churches into this meaningful work.  

May we use the gifts given to us to love, support, encourage and walk beside our school partners. In the name of Jesus, we pray… 
…amen
