National Prayer for Teachers

National Prayer for Teachers

God of wisdom, greatest Teacher of all,

look with love and kindness

on teachers everywhere.

Give them strength of body, largeness of hearts

and soundness of mind so that they may perform

their task with vigor, competence,

compassion and patience.

Help them to be committed to their mission

to shape the tender minds

of the young in the knowledge

of the truth, the love for your creation

and the value of peace in this world.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

This poem will be recited in all the Sunday Masses on September 22 and 29 and on October 5, 
for National Teachers' Day Celebration.
