Invocation

Eternal God and Father of all Mankind,
We would acknowledge
Thee in all our ways,
For it is Thy good gift of life,
Our purpose to love Thee and to serve Thy Children;
It has drawn us to take counsel together.
Be thou ever be with us through these days,
Kindle a right spirit in our assemblies,
Grant unto us a vision greater than worldly prudence,
an understanding beyond knowledge
that is true wisdom;
silence all contentions & self-will amongst us,
make us in all things peaceful & strong,
through the unity of our high purpose of
service to mankind,
May the ways of concord and true respect for
All our fellow men
Be our assurance of liberty,
Our great intelligence for the days to come and the
safety of all our nations,
Thy will be done;
In the manner of all Prophets and Teachers
Of good life,
We pray, Amen
