As the School Year Closes: A Prayer
The 2024-2025 academic year is almost over. You did it, scholars! Whether you still face finals, the completion of projects and presentations, or wait with anticipation for graduation day, we invite you to join in a moment of prayer offered by UMHEF scholar and Class of 2025 graduate, Maeve Perrin.
God,
As this school year comes to a close, we thank you for all that you have carried us through, the people you have brought into our lives, and the experiences we have gained. We ask your blessing over all we have learned and that you would continue to guide us through your Holy Spirit into the lives we have been created for–lives of joyful service to you and all the world.
We give you thanks and praise, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Amen.
