Invocation - Temple Beth-El Las Cruces Board Meeting - September 19, 2019

Eternal God, 

Our Guide and Teacher, 

Our Mentor and Companion, 

Be with us in our discussions, 

Conversations

And Deliberations 

As we honor the past

Evaluate the present

And chart the course of our future. 

Fill us with gratitude for all who 

Have given of their 

Time, 

Wisdom, 

Energies,

And commitment

To enrich and enliven our congregation and community. 

Deepen our wisdom to understand what we can do

To further enhance the vitality of our gatherings

And grant us the skill 

To sustain our holy space 

As a home for creativity, 

Fellowship, 

Genuine concern and

Healing. 

May we see this House

As a gathering place where we learn 

To further compassion

To tirelessly work for justice

And to quietly and courageously

promote peace among ourselves

And in our world. 

May our presence here together

Reflect and acknowledge your Presence that suffuses

All existence.  

Amen.
