FIFTH GRADE January 22nd Dear Lord, We made it through the first half of the school year. We've studied very hard and prepared for all our classes. Help us continue to do our best at school. As we celebrate Martin Luther King Day, help us treat everyone with kindness and compassion. Help more people choose vocations in the church either by becoming priests or sisters, or by doing more for their parishes. Watch over the 7th and 8th graders as they prepare for Confirmation and the 2nd grade as they prepare for First Communion. There are many people we want to keep in our prayers: Mrs. Laney's family, Mrs. Wagner's friend, Miss Getz's brother, and everyone else who is facing medical problems. Please take care of all our servicemen, both here and overseas. Keep them safe while they protect us. We ask you this in your name Lord, Amen. November 5th Dear God, Thank-you for all the beautiful trees this fall and for giving us rain. Please give rain to all those areas that need it badly. Help us appreciate all of our families and friends as Thanksgiving approaches. Help us continue to work hard in school. Please take care of our church and school. Protect all the soldiers overseas especially Lexi's dad. We pray for Miss Getz's dog Elana that she recovers from her sickness. We also pray for Katelynn's dog, Annie's cat and Mrs. Laney's dog who recently passed away. We ask you this in you name Jesus, Amen. September 24th Dear God, Thank you for bringing us together again this year. Help us slow down and work together to mae this year the best school year ever for all of us.
