Prayer

35 07 March 2025

Loving Father,

As we journey through this sacred season of Lent, we come before You with open hearts, eager to grow deeper in faith and love. 
Set us ablaze with the fire of Your love, that we may be renewed in spirit and strengthened to follow the path of Christ, who sacrificed everything for our salvation.

On this World Day of Prayer, we unite our voices with Christians around the world, lifting up prayers for peace, justice, and healing. May we be inspired by the love of Jesus to serve our brothers and sisters in need, sharing His compassion and mercy with all we encounter.
May our hearts burn with a desire for justice, and our actions reflect Your boundless love for all people.

As we embrace the practices of Lent—prayer, fasting, and almsgiving—help us to draw closer to You, Lord, and to be more mindful of the needs of others.
Help us to walk with You in the desert, just as You walked with us through Your own journey of sacrifice and love.
In moments of challenge and temptation, may we be strengthened by Your example of selflessness and grace.
May this season be one of deep reflection, where we are transformed by Your grace and filled with a renewed sense of purpose.

Lord, through our prayers and acts of kindness, may we be a light in the world, radiating Your love in every corner of our school and beyond.
We pray for a world united in Your peace, where all people are treated with dignity and love.

Set us ablaze with the love of Jesus, that we may live out His mission with hearts full of joy, hope, and a deep commitment to making the world a better place.
Let our actions be a witness to the power of Your love, and may that love burn brightly within us, setting our hearts on fire to live with compassion and kindness every day.

We ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord.

Amen.
