Our 8th grade graduation Mass is tomorrow evening. Please join us in prayer for them:
Loving God,
We pray for our graduates today and thank you for the work you are continuing to do in their lives.
Keep their footsteps firm and remind them that you are with them, always.
Let them be a light to their friends and neighbors.
Allow every gift and treasure you have placed inside their lives to grow, develop, and flourish, to bring you glory.
Remind them every day how much you love them, that they would find security and confidence in you.
Give them a compassionate spirit and the wisdom to look beyond appearances to the heart within.
Surround them with friends and leaders who would challenge them to press closer to you.
Protect them and fill their days with laughter and joy.
Give them courage to face challenges set before them.
Shine over them, fill them with your spirit, and bless them with your peace. May they be instilled with hope for the new roads you have in store.
Amen.
