Gracious Father in heaven,
We pause at this moment to remember that you are the source of our lives and blessings. We praise you for each day of life and for the beauty of our reunion here.
Bring to our celebration joyful thoughts and laughter over memories of high school days, of achievements past, and challenges overcome.
We humbly remember those of our number who have passed on ahead of us and are mindful of their contributions to our lives and world.
What gift can we bring this night but our grateful thanksgivings for the daily bread that sustains us and for the food and festivity we share here. As we rekindle the ties that bind us together we thank you, O God, for your loving kindness which is fresh each morning, and for your grace given in Jesus Christ. It is in his name we pray and live and create our tomorrows. Amen.
