................................. Prayer to Begin the School Year God of wisdom; We praise you for the wonder of our being; For mind, body and spirit. Be with our children as they begin; A new school year; Bless them and their teachers and staff. Give them strength and grace as they grow; wisdom and knowledge to their minds, as they search for understanding; And peace and zeal to their hearts; We ask this through the intercession of Our Lady of Lourdes and the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
