To: Department of Basic Education, School Governing Bodies, Principals, and Community Leaders
From: Concerned Parents, Guardians, Educators, and Community Members
Subject: Reinstating Christian Teachings and Faith-Based Activities in Our Schools


---

We, the undersigned, respectfully petition for the restoration of Jesus Christ’s teachings, values, and presence in our school environments.
As parents, guardians, teachers, and faith-driven citizens, we believe that our children deserve more than just academic development—they need a strong spiritual foundation.

In today’s world filled with uncertainty, anxiety, and moral confusion, we believe Jesus Christ offers our children hope, identity, and a dependable guide for life. Schools are not just institutions for intellectual learning but places of heart-shaping, where values are formed and faith can be nurtured.

✝️ Our Petition Calls for:

1. Voluntary Christian Devotions and Prayers

Morning assemblies that include Scripture readings, worship songs, and prayer.

Open encouragement for children and teachers to pray and express their faith freely.



2. Faith-Based Clubs and Bible Study Groups

Safe spaces for learners to gather, share, and grow in their faith.

Supervised and age-appropriate Christian fellowship activities.



3. Christian Holidays and Celebrations

Recognition and celebration of key events like Easter and Christmas within schools.



4. Integration of Moral & Biblical Values into School Culture

Encouragement of kindness, forgiveness, respect, and honesty based on Biblical teachings.



5. Access to Pastoral or Spiritual Counseling

Opportunities for children to speak to faith leaders or spiritual counselors when facing life challenges.

Prayer is indeed required at schools however pastors having access to kids needs to be monitored.

I support this initiative. We need to bring religion back to our schools. Our children need to make God their anchor. Otherwise we are a lost nation.

I am a Pastor doing School Ministry and Schools that pray and receive God's word produces kids that have better Morals among other things. Jesus is the Answer and we refuse the Government ideas in our Schools now.

First Amendment violation to remove prayer. Now there is no freedom to pray. Prior to 1963 there were no school shootings. The worst things in happening in schools were throwing paper, cutting in line, "dog ate my homework" etc... Post 1963, everything bad increased, such as Teenage pregnancy & abortions, SAT scores plummeted, drug use & gang activity skyrocketed along with school crime. With GOD and prayer, children had a "conscience". Not anymore, Bring Prayer in Schools back RIGHT NOW

it's important. 1st it's historically correct. Prior to the 1963 ruling, there were never school shootings. The worst things happening in schools were cutting in line, throwing paper, "dog ate my homework" and things like that. Post 1963, negative things increased. id est, teenage pregnancy & abortions increased, SAT scores plummeted, drug use & gang activity increased. School crime increased. When GOD was in the picture, kids had sort of a "conscience". Now they do not. Bring Prayer back NOW
