Back to School Preparation – 5 Valuable Scriptures to Pray With Your Kids… This is an exciting time of year with so many students going back to school! It starts with Back to School shopping, packing new lunch boxes, backpacks, and so much more!
Before our kids head out the front door, let’s make sure we prepare them for everything they encounter! Prayer is the first line of defense in a believer’s life and can be done before you leave home or in the car on the way to school. Be encouraged to pray together each day!

Moms In Prayer Story
Are you looking to connect with other parents and grandparents to pray for your student in Back to School Preparation? Moms In Prayer might be the group for you. Read their story and how they got started.
HOW IT ALL STARTED: In 1984, Fern Nichols’ heart was heavy for her two oldest sons because of the temptations they would face in junior high school. She called another mom to pray for their children and the school. They invited other Christian moms and began meeting for Prayer. This was the beginning of the Moms in Prayer International ministry. Word spread and soon groups grew in her area and later spread throughout the world. Today, Moms in Prayer is led by President Sally Burke, and groups meet in every U.S. state and in more than 150 countries. Click the link to read more and JOIN!

Wow. This is an amazing post. As a teacher, I see why it is so necessary to pray for the school, teachers, and students. School can definitely be a spiritual war zone. This is definitely a Holy Spirit inspire post. Thank you.
