Prayer
Almighty and eternal God, at the outset of this new year, we are grateful that you are not beholden to the changing seasons and rapidly turning calendar. And now, having gathered in pursuit of our purposes as Rotarians, guide us as we seek to be faithful in our calling to serve others above ourselves. Bless our food and fellowship that we may be strengthened in body and enriched in spirit. We pray with grateful anticipation of your continued favor. Amen.
