” I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.”

Philippians 1:3-6

Paul’s relationship with the Philippian believers was a strong gospel partnership marked by mutual spiritual growth and a deepening faith. Their fellowship inspired Paul to pray with thankfulness, not because they were perfect, but because their imperfections fueled meaningful intercession and ministry. True spiritual growth in a Christian school community depends on cultivating gratitude and praying for one another. Especially for those who may be a little more challenging to actually pray for. Paul’s prayers were inclusive and joyful, embracing both sorrow and celebration as he carried the burdens and blessings of his fellow believers. As Christian parents, we are encouraged to reflect this same spirit of prayerful partnership, allowing our prayers to be shaped by thankfulness, compassion, and joy.
