Prayer of despair

https://www.tes.com/magazine/archive/prayer-despair
It’s official - Ifield has the worst primary school in West Sussex.

I was engulfed by anger at the politicians; depression at my uselessness; anxiety for our children, and a despairing sadness for those who have worked so hard.

The incalculable upheaval of closure, relocation, loss of playing fields, hot meals, and morale - all this, and more, was just too much for this primary school - it just didn’t stand a chance.

Please make a little space for this community in your prayers, at this festive time.
