2023-2024 Bible Verse

Every year, the faculty and staff of Crean Lutheran High School gather to pray over the coming year and elect a theme Bible verse. The verse chosen for the 2023-2024 school year comes from Psalm 86. This year, we will walk alongside students in their journeys with God.

Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name. Psalm 86:11
