Build Aspire Assessment Literacy
Prayer
God, our Father, we thank You
for the gift of love and the gift of
life. We thank you for the gift of
our children. We ask You to
send Your holy angels to protect
and guide them each day so that
they will walk the narrow path
of purity, self-control, and
obedience as was taught to us by
Your own Son, Jesus
Christ. We ask this through
Jesus Christ our Lord, in the
union with the Holy
Spirit. Amen.
