Back to School is upon us!
Having grown children and working in this industry brings back fond memories of all things back-to-school! The uniform purchases, supply shopping and book covering (which really dates me!) were always met with excitement and anticipation for a year filled with possibility.
I’ve been reminded of this more so lately, as for the first time in well over one year, the stores are actually full of this excitement as students and parents prepare for a normal return to in-person instruction. Apprehension still exists in some cases, yet our faith brings us together as we pray for the creation of critical thinkers, faith followers, effective communicators and life-long learners.
As we begin attending school events and working with families desiring a quality education that best meets their child’s needs, may we have gratitude for our tax credits that make this educational dream a reality for thousand. We will continue to do all we can to educate our taxpayers on the tremendous gift given by our Arizona legislators in the form of tax credit scholarships. We look forward to seeing you at parishes and schools and wish the very best for all in the new school year!
Heavenly Father, we pray that you will help students and their parents
as they begin this new school year and allow them to
feel your presence and blessings daily.
Your Word encourages us to be strong and courageous.
We pray that you will open the eyes of every student to
embrace new challenges, revelation and insight in Your Name.
Allow every student and parent to support teachers as they educate children of all ages.
Give each student a spirit of enthusiasm, motivation and self-discipline.
Provide parents a spirit of understanding so that they will effectively listen
to the needs of their children and inspire every student to do the best they can this year.
In Your Name We Pray,
Amen.
Have a great Year,
Deb
