Remembering Grace

Gracious God,
We enjoy eating. Thank you for the pleasure it gives us. May we always remember, even when eating away from home, to thank you for our food. Amen.

Salt and Light

God, who calls us to be salt for the world, may our words be seasoned with grace.
Lord, who calls us to be light to the world, may this food nourish us so we may shine your love to all we meet. Amen.

See Matthew 5: 14-16

Sharing Grace

Dear Jesus,
We thank you for our food today;
bless it to our good, we pray.
We thank you for your loving care.
With others may we always share.
Amen

(Paraphrase of a prayer written by Dan Hauk, at age 10)
