Let us never betray their trust, dampen their hopes or discourage their dreams. Help us, dear God, to help these precious children become all You mean them to be. Let Your grace and love fall on them like gentle breezes and give them inner strength, peace and patience for the journey ahead. We make this prayer, through Christ Our Lord, Amen.
