In the spirit of the Global Week of Prayer from September 1st to 7th, led by the 24-7 Prayer Movement worldwide, we invite the entire Church community — educators, students, families, religious, and laypeople — to unite in prayer for our school communities in Malta and Gozo.
At the beginning of the Season of Creation and as the new scholastic year approaches, we believe it’s the perfect moment to dedicate our schools to God. We believe what the psalmist writes: “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labour in vain. Unless the Lord guards the city, the guard keeps watch in vain.” (Psalm 127). So we pray that each classroom, staff room, corridor, and playground becomes a place where the civilisation of God’s love can grow — a civilisation rooted in compassion, justice, peace, inclusion, and joy.

Pray where you are
If you cannot come to Floriana, wherever you are – at home, at work, on the bus, or in the staffroom – take a moment to stop and pray for our schools.
Your prayer can be a sentence, a scripture verse, a moment of silence, or a shared reflection with your colleagues or family.
We also invite you to:
- Please send us a copy of your prayer by email so we can include it in our shared prayer wall.
- Submit a prayer request for your school, team, class, or students.
- Use the padlet below to share your prayer or intention.
This event is part of the Prayer Spaces programme by the Spiritual Development in Schools,
