{Confirmation class, Collaborative prayer by students, Feb.1998}

Lord:

Help me to get through the hard times and give me the strength to survive. Give me the light to help me see others as they are and help us to understand them as we would like to be understood.

Amen.

{collaborative prayer of Confirmation Class in 1999}

Lord, we are thankful for your blessings and the Love from our families. We need help with our decisions as we mature. Bless the sick and suffering in hospitals and third workd countries, and bless us all — bring us peace on earth and good health. You are mighty, kind, and loving. We praise you for the earth, the things that keep us going, and for our life and love. Alleluia! Amen.
