You are invited to pray for our school community as we make the return to full school. If you would like to join our Bennett Parent Prayer Group so that you can pray regularly for our school please email Reverend Rachael on [email protected].

O God, the protector of all who trust in you,
we commend into your hands our school
as all staff and students return after this lockdown.
May we know your presence as we journey into school,
your peace to reassure those who are anxious,
your joy as we are reunited with friends,
your hope guiding us for the future,
your comfort for those who have been bereaved,
and your strength to persevere when facing challenges and changes.
Gracious God, we are confident that your love and care for us will never change,
may we reflect the same love and care to all in our community.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

A prayer from St Patrick’s Breastplate
Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me.
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger.
