On September 19, 2010, churches around the world will cry out to the Lord for the students, teachers and school staff in their congregation. Imagine the impact this time of prayer will have on that worn-out teacher, the weary principal, the school board member that’s standing up for biblical values, as well as every school in your community.
Bless Our Schools Sunday, hosted by Moms In Touch International, is a time for churches to ask all the educators (teachers, administrators, staff, school board, etc.) and/or students in their congregation to stand or come forward while the pastor prays blessing over them for the school year.
Pastors will have the freedom to celebrate Bless Our Schools Sunday in a way that best fits the service and congregation. Some might even have a whole sermon based on blessing our schools through prayer, and highlight testimonies from MITI moms, teachers and students. Churches are welcome to participate in Bless Our Schools at their Saturday services, as well.
Moms In Touch International offers prayer points and flyers at www.MomsInTouch.org, under Bless Our Schools Sunday.
The 25-year-old prayer ministry, Moms In Touch International has one goal–to gather women together to pray scripturally and specifically for children and schools. Mothers in more than 120 countries meet regularly, spending an hour praying through the Four
Steps of Prayer: praising God for who He is; preparing one’s heart for prayer by silently confessing to the Lord; thanking God for what He has done; and interceding on behalf of children, teachers and school staff.
The Moms In Touch International Booklet, available in 45 languages/versions, explains the biblical principles of the Four Steps of Prayer, praying in one accord and how to facilitate a powerful hour of prayer that not only impacts the lives of the children and school staff being prayed for, but also changes the lives of the moms, as they develop an intimate prayer relationship with the Heavenly Father.
