Let’s bow our heads and place ourselves in the presence of the Lord.

Dear heavenly Father, we thank you for gatherings all of us today in this important
event. May you give your guidance and blessings on this moment so that we can
enjoy and appreciate its significance in our lives. Bless everyone present today that
each may be able to share what we have for your glory and honor.
Grant good health and safety to loved ones left at home and peace and goodwill to
all men. May the various activities related to this event be a success, through your
intervention.
We pray for guidance in every single activity that we will have today and ask that
you would clearly show us how to conduct our work with a spirit of joy and
enthusiasm.
Give us the desire to find ways to excel in all that we do. Help us to work together
and encourage each other to excellence.
We ask that we would challenge each other to reach higher and farther to be the
best we can be.
We ask this in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen
