Prayer
Eternal God, as a prelude to our experience together today, we bow humbly before you in acknowledgment of your never-ending mercies. Gratefully we receive the gifts which flow from your beneficent hand. We offer our thanks for the blessings of food and for those who prepare and serve it. Bless our fellowship, our table conversations, and the efforts we make to serve others. Amen.
