Dear Prayer Warrior,

We’re excited to announce that September 19, 2010, will be our first annual Bless Our Schools Sunday, a time for churches worldwide to pray for children and schools. Our hope is that every year, the third Sunday of September will be a time for pastors to have all the educators (teachers, administrators, staff, school board, etc.)  and/or students in their congregation stand or come forward while the pastor prays blessing over them for the coming school year.

Would you be willing to talk with your pastor about Bless Our Schools Sunday?

Pastors will have the freedom to celebrate Bless Our Schools Sunday in a way that best fits his 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.

Bless Our Schools Sunday will be a great time for MITI moms to invite others to their Moms In Touch groups.

On our website, www.MomsInTouch.org, we have two initial resources for you.

• Bless Our Schools Sunday flyer to share with your pastor.

• Ideas for how to share MITI with the congregation on Bless Our Schools Sunday.

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.
