The teacher prays to Jesus for guidance and patience as they work to educate students. They ask for help remembering that they are shaping minds that will impact the future. The teacher also prays for strength and blessings for the students, as well as for those without food. They want the meal to bring the school together as a family and give strength as they mold the youth.

amongst men in Palestine, they called you teacher. Help us to remember the greatness of the work which has been given to us to do; that we work with the most precious material in the world, the mind of the youth. Help us always to remember that we are making marks upon that mind which time will never rub out. Give us patience with those who are slow to learn, and even with those who refuse to learn. When we have to exercise discipline, help us to do so in sternness yet in love. Keep us from the sarcastic and the biting tongue, and help us always to encourage those who are doing their best, even if that best is not very good. Guide us to help our students, not only to store things in their memories, but to be able to use their minds, and to think for themselves. And amidst all the worries and the frustrations of our job and mission, help us always to remember that the future of the nation and of the world is in our hands. WE ASK YOU THEN DEAR LORD, TO BLESS THESE FOODS WHICH WE ARE ABOUT RECEIVE; BLESS THOSE WHO PREPARED FOR THEM AND FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOTHING TO EAT AT THIS MOMENT. MAY THESE FOODS UNITE US AS ONE BIG FAMILY, strengthen our camaraderie AND MAY THESE FOODS BE OUR STRENGTH IN PERFORMING OUR DUTIES AS MOLDER OF YOUTH IN THIS WORLD. GRANT THIS THROUGH OUR LORD. AMEN.
