6. Sanders’ Park & St. John's School
Thank you for this beautiful open space gifted to the town by the Sanders sisters. Thank you for the churches and other groups that hold events here.
Lord, thank you for groundskeepers and gardeners. As they tidy paths, plant seeds, prune shrubs, mow lawns and remove weeds, help them to rejoice in the beauty of your creation. Protect them from the rain and sun and give them physical stamina as they work on their feet and hands and knees all day.
We pray also for St. John's Middle School whose school borders the park. Give thanks for the many staff who work there and have dedicated their lives to teaching children. Pray in particular for the new year 5 pupils starting this week. Year 5 is the first year in the school and the 9 year olds will need to make new friends. In particular pray for children who have come from first schools with only one or two others and now need to integrate with other groups who know each other well.
