3. A Leadership Reflection

4. Let us pray: Lord Jesus, by your example you taught us
to serve one another without counting the
cost. Your kingdom is not one of this world,
but rather one where those who are greatest must think of
themselves as the least.
Your leadership did not seek power and acclaim. Rather,
your authority was gentle, persuasive, and
pastoral. Inspire us for the ministry of
leadership in our schools, that we might put
your people’s needs ahead of our own and direct every decision and action to the fulfilment of your mission here on earth.
We pray this in your name, Jesus Christ, one God with the Father and
the Spirit, forever and ever.
Amen
