Opening prayer
Heavenly Father, we give you thanks for bringing us
here safely this evening as we gather to hear about
the next year at Immanuel. We thank you for a
wonderful group of teachers and supportive church
members who have helped Immanuel Lutheran
School provide a caring, Christian education for over
130 years. We ask that you continue to provide all of
our families an opportunity to be in a school in which
we can freely share your love while receiving a
quality education. Please be with us as we move into
the next school year and beyond.
