Dear God, we thank you for the gift of sport and the blessings it brings to all involved. Today, we especially lift up our sport officials. We are grateful for their presence, their careful decisions, and their guidance to help this game be played safely, fairly and respectfully. We implore the athletes, coaches and fans in this game to show respect and kindness to these officials, who are the keepers of the integrity of the game. We lift this prayer in gratitude for their service and their dedication. In Christ’s name, we pray, AMEN.
