August is filled with school supply shopping, schedule planning, organizing transportation, and gearing up for the upcoming school year.

Our neighborhoods and streets will soon be filled with students, teachers, and parents returning to the classroom... remember to slow down and proceed with caution when driving.

As the school year approaches, it's equally essential to remember that education isn't just about academics such as grades, participation, and homework; it also nurtures the child's well-being.

The back-to-school season can invite you to be in chaos and stress. But here is what we would invite you to do instead: pray for peace and direction, and lend a listening ear to your child's words and behaviors.

Chances are they are a little nervous.

So, embrace this special time as a chance to create a positive and faith filled space for your family and our communities.

Pray along with us... and share!
