Join us in praying the Novena for Teachers!

Education can be a great blessing in our lives. But acquiring more knowledge is not usually an easy task. Skilled teachers can be a big help to all who are seeking to learn as students.

Teachers can do very important work as they help their students to learn and grow. Many teachers hold great influence over their students because teachers spend so much time teaching.

Holy teachers can influence their students toward the path of virtue. But even teachers who possess great holiness themselves often face difficulty in teaching their students well.

Teachers are in great need of our prayers as they work to teach their students well and to influence their students for good, even when it is difficult.

Let’s offer prayers in this Novena for Teachers that God will help all teachers to do their work well and lead their students to holiness!
