Join Emily Wilson — Catholic author, speaker, wife, and mother — for a 14-day prayer challenge to help you and your family step into the school year. The new year stirs up fresh hopes and worries alike, and new routines have a way of surfacing everything you carry for your kids. Each day, Emily will lead you in a simple prayer for God’s blessing on your child during the school day. Even and especially for the times when you don’t feel you have the words to pray, this challenge gives you prayers that are specific, intentional, and rooted in hope.
