Prayer Before Class
Dear Lord and Father of all,
Thank you for today.
Thank you for ways in which you provide for us all. For Your protection
and love we thank you.
Help us to focus our hearts and minds now on what we are about to
learn.
Inspire us by Your Holy Spirit as we listen and write.
Guide us by your eternal light as we discover more about the world
around us.
We ask all this in the name of Jesus.
Amen.
Come, Holy Spirit, Divine Creator, true source of light and fountain of
wisdom! Pour forth your brilliance upon my dense intellect, dissipate
the darkness which covers me, that of sin and of ignorance. Grant me
a penetrating mind to understand, a retentive memory, method and
ease in learning, the lucidity to comprehend, and abundant grace in
expressing myself. Guide the beginning of my work, direct its
progress, and bring it to successful completion. This I ask through
Jesus Christ, true God and true man, living and reigning with You and
the Father, forever and ever.
Amen.
Heavenly Father,
You hold each of us in your loving hands.
Come fill our hearts, minds and bodies afresh with hope.
Help us to cast our worries upon you, so that we can embrace our learning today.
Bless us as we study and grow together.
Come and anoint those who teach and tutor us to be bringers of insight and knowledge.
Lord, watch over us all, keep us safe within your Almighty hand.
Amen.

In the name of Jesus.
