Dear God,

I ask for your blessing on this ceremony, our awardees and all who are gathered with us today. I
pray that you will fill each employee with satisfaction at the great work they are doing for the
sake of their country. I especially pray for those who are deployed away from home. Keep us all,
and those we love, safe and strong. Grant us success in every good endeavor as we serve our
community, our nation and our world. Be with us this hour, and every hour, I pray. Amen.

Gracious God,
We ask your blessing upon these young women and men who we honor today for their achievements.
We celebrate their capacity for creativity, for critical thinking, for focused effort.
We are grateful that they and their families entrusted Xavier's faculty and staff to engage them
intellectually, morally, and spiritually.
Thank you for their confidence to discover and explore new possbilities and knowledge to discern what is
right and good and just.
Enable them to draw upon the wisdom and experience of yesterday as they respond to the questions and

'For the Greater Glory of God.'
