Safe Spaces
Lord,
What a summer we had with your children! Our campers were full with joy, anxiety, bravery, humor, hesitation, enthusiasm, and new knowledge of Your love. Our volunteers were full with joy, love, energy, generosity, humor, and selflessness. It was a beautiful, rainy summer at camp. Every summer ends though, and now we are nearly through August.
August brings a potential host of changes for our campers, and we want to plead for Your comfort and peace over them. We pray that You provide safe spaces at school and at home. We pray that You provide safe adults to teach our kids and care for our kids until they can see us again.
God, You are at work, and we are so thankful to witness this work and be part of it. Remember our campers and remember us as we embark on a new school year and fall season. Thank you for Your unending love!
Amen.
