Dear Lord,
We give you Thanks for so many reasons:

Gracious Lord,
It is truly due to your Kindness and Graciousness that we are gathered here this evening to celebrate this marriage and joining of Souls between Rhonda and myself. For if it were not for your divine intervention to intercede in the lives of two of your children, by guiding us to find each another, this afternoon’s Wedding Ceremony and this Glorious Reception would not be taking place.

Dear Father,
We ask that you guide the actions of all those gathered at these tables here tonight, for tonight and throughout the rest of our lives. And that you watch over and protect those who are near and dear to us that could not be present, because the distance measured in Man’s made miles were to great to traverse, or that they have made the eternal journey and are seated now next to you at your table.

Merciful Lord,
We ask that you keep fresh in everyone’s Heart, Mind, and Soul, that the purpose for this gathering is a Celebration of Love, and that you Bless this Food so that it may give us the nourishment and strength to go forth and Teach your message of Love and Understanding, and to do thy bidding.

Almighty Lord,
We also Thank thee for your gift of Beautiful weather, considering we did pick March for this event, and pray that you will forever provide the rays of sunshine down on the lives of those gathered before you!

These things we ask, these things we pray. Thank you Lord, Amen!
