14 Let all that you do be done in love.” 1 Corinthians 16:14
Tonight we lift up Westhaven Elementary in Whitehaven to the Lord. The school is located at 4585 Hodge Road. Principal Amber Stroble is a Memphis-Shelby County Schools grad and has worked in the school since 2016. The school page is found here: https://schools.scsk12.org/Page/13578
The school requests our prayers. Lord, we pray for stability and consistency in the school building. We pray that the halls be filled with joy. We pray teachers and staff are encouraged in their work. We pray parents find caring partners in preparing their children for the world.
Lord, we pray for positive role models and volunteers to pour into those young minds. We pray you keep evil away from the school grounds. We lift up the community surrounding Westhaven, that peace be in men’s hearts and Godly love flow forth from the women.
Lord, our schools need You, even if we are no longer allowed to promote you directly. May the lives of our professionals and educators be witness of Your glory.
Lord, we lift up the search process for the next superintendent for Memphis-Shelby County Schools. May you bring the right person to lead this important part of our community. Set aside petty jealousies and resentment. Cast out discouraging voices. Lord, bring a truth teller and consensus builder that can help facilitate student growth and vibrant schools. In Your name, amen.
