Prayer
We thank you, O God, for your protective providence enabling us to gather here once again. We have come as separate individuals with personal histories and current personal involvements. But inherent in each of us also is the desire and ability to engage in fellowship with others, both for personal pleasure and for our purpose of serving others. We express out thanks for food prepared for us today, and for friendship deepened and fellowship enjoyed in the course of this meeting. Amen.
