O Eternal God, bless all schools, colleges, and universities, that they may be lively centers for sound learning, new discovery, and the pursuit of wisdom; provide faculty, staff and students protection from sickness at this time of uncertainty and illness; and grant that those who teach and those who learn may find you to be the source of all truth; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Almighty God, you sent your Son Jesus Christ to reconcile the world to yourself: We praise and bless you for those whom you have sent in the power of the Spirit to preach the Gospel to all nations.
