Jesus, our Teacher,
Thank you for the opportunity to return to campus, to learn with one another, to be with one another and to pray with one another as we start the new semester.
Please help us to learn with humble minds and open hearts, to be where our feet are, to see you in one another and to use our studies to serve one another.Help us to grow in further communion with you this semester, and to learn with gratitude, wonder and joy.
Bless the broader Yale and New Haven communities as our campus fills with the renewed life and well-being and inclusion of all in our community.
We ask all of this in your name, Lord.
Amen.
