Friday, February 8, 2019 – Online Learning Day

Let us remember that we are in the holy presence of God.

Dear Father in heaven, living source of all that is eternal in us, we come to You and plead with You to strengthen the gifts You have given us. Grant us the light of life in which we can walk in spite of the many burdens and uncertainties of our earthly life. Protect us from deception and disappointment. Strengthen our hope for Your steadfast, firm, and eternal rule in us, in many others, and finally in all people. Amen.

Saint John Baptist de La Salle…pray for us.

Live Jesus in our hearts…forever!
