Let us open our hearts to pray…
Loving God, as we encounter Your image in every child no matter what age, we ask for wisdom and Your grace to …
- See the wonder and awe of the world through the eyes of children
- Acknowledge and celebrate their agency
- Listen to their voices with respect and understanding
- Celebrate with them as they live who they are called to be
- Invite and nurture their full participation in life and community
- Value their relationships and heritage
- Commit ourselves to their right to dream, to seek meaning, to love and to grow in knowing that they are Your children loved by You.
We ask this prayer through Jesus, the Child, the Adult, the Christ,
Who lives with You and the Holy Spirit,
Amen
