PRE-DEPARTURE EVENING ISSOUDUN RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM, HARTZER CAMPUS BURRADOO

WELCOME- MS LINDA NAYLOR

The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim Because it was grassy and wanted wear, Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Robert Frost

All Students:

Loving God, thank you for this opportunity awaiting us. Help our hearts to be open to you, one another and to our teachers as we embark on this exciting journey together.

Continue to watch over our parents, families and all those we love. May this time together draw us ever closer to you. We ask this in Jesus’ name, Amen.

“I’ve called you by name and you are mine” Isaiah 43: 1

Parents:

Loving and nurturing God, we bring our children before You and commend them to Your care. We pray that deep within, they know Your gentle presence. Throughout their lives may they turn to You, the one who is always calling them and inviting them to fullness of life. We ask that our children listen to the stirrings of their heart and grow into becoming the people You dream them to be.

“I’ve called you by name and you are mine” Isaiah 43: 1

Parents: As they begin this special journey, we pray that they will find a home at Hartzer, a deep courage and strength within themselves and that in time, they will become wonderful contributors to this month long programme. Help them realise their full potential and use their gifts to serve You and each other. For ourselves, give us wisdom as we continue to guide our children and walk with them over this next stage of their life journey. We ask this prayer through Christ our Lord, Amen.
