Thankful Thursday January 16th

This middle verse from our theme for this year is a powerful call to keep our hearts and minds connected to God throughout our daily lives. As parents, one of the greatest gifts we can give our children is the example of a life rooted in prayer. Whether it’s a simple blessing before meals, a quiet moment of gratitude at bedtime, or a heartfelt prayer for guidance during challenges, these moments strengthen our relationship with God and model for our children the beauty of turning to Him in all things. Use resources for good - like Little Rose Shop Youtube has numerous videos to lead children and families through prayer!

Let us make prayer a shared family practice, lifting each other up in faith and asking for His continued guidance and protection. Together, we can create a home and school where prayer is not just a moment, but a way of life.
