Backpack Blessing is Sunday, August 16, during the 9:00 a.m. worship service.
Bring you backpack, iPad, phone, briefcase, or anything you take into the world each day for a blessing.
O God, as we return to school, give us inquiring minds and discerning hearts.
Give us courage to persevere in all we undertake.
Give us the gift of joy and wonder in all things.
Give us laughter and love to share with others.
Give us protection and safety as we move through the day.
Give us sure and certain knowledge of your unfailing love for us.
Amen.
