PRE-DEPARTURE EVENING
ISSOUDUN RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM, HARTZER CAMPUS BURRADOO
WELCOME- MS LINDA NAYLOR
 The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
Robert Frost

All Students:
Loving God, thank you for this opportunity awaiting us. Help our hearts to be open to you, one another and to
our teachers as we embark on this exciting journey together.
Continue to watch over our parents, families and all those we love. May this time together draw us ever closer
to you. We ask this in Jesus’ name, Amen.

Parents:
Loving and nurturing God, we bring our children before You and commend them to Your
care. We pray that deep within, they know Your gentle presence. Throughout their lives
may they turn to You, the one who is always calling them and inviting them to fullness of
life. We ask that our children listen to the stirrings of their heart and grow into
becoming the people You dream them to be.

Parents:
As they begin this special journey, we pray that they will find a home at Hartzer,
a deep courage and strength within themselves and that in time, they will
become wonderful contributors to this month long programme.
Help them realise their full potential and use their gifts to serve You and each
other. For ourselves, give us wisdom as we continue to guide our children and
walk with them over this next stage of their life journey.
We ask this prayer through Christ our Lord, Amen.
