"Dear God, thank You for giving all of us the opportunity today to share in the fellowship of one another. We ask for Your blessing and presence on this occasion and ask that together we may prove ourselves mindful of Your favor and eager to do Your will.
We know You have given us the tools needed to live according to Your righteousness and word and only hope that on this day and all others we can perceive what is right, and seek first Your honor and glory.
Lord, as You look over us today, please bless this governing body of our elected officials and the staff members, employees and volunteers who dedicate their time and energy to make this state a better place for all of God's children. May we continue to use Your spirit of wisdom to spread peace and justice at home, and through obedience to Your principles, display Your greatness through the authority of government.
In closing, we pray that our conversations and attitudes today will be pleasing to You and that we enjoy the time we have to spend together on this beautiful day.
All of which we pray through Your name, Amen."
