Opening Ode
Bless this Chapter Lord we pray
Make it safe by night and day
Bless our Star that shines so bright
Sending rays of guiding light
Winter, spring, summer and fall
Bless our members, one and all,
Lord, watch over us from above
Fill our hearts with peace and love.
Closing of the Bible
We close our Bible, our Chapter, too
To friends assembled, we bid adieu
May God go with you along the way,
Until we meet together on another day,
Closing Ode
May the good Lord bless and keep you,
whether near or far away,
May you find that long awaited golden day, today
May your troubles all be small ones,
and you fortune ten times ten
May the good Lord bless and keep you ‘til we meet again.
Flag Retirement
“While the storm clouds gather far across the sea,
Let us swear allegiance to a land that’s free,
Let us all be grateful for a land so fair
As we raise our voices in a solemn prayer.”
God bless America, Land that I love,
Stand beside her and guide her
Through the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans white with foam,
God bless America, My home sweet home,
God bless America, My home, sweet home.
Please join us in the dining room for refreshments.

It must be true love, which shows itself in
action. John 3:18
There’s a miracle called Friendship
That dwells within the heart;
And you don’t know how it happens
Or when it gets it’s start…
But the happiness it brings to you
Always gives a special lift;
And you realize that friendship
is God’s most precious gift.
