Prayer Submission
Offering God prayers for opening a meeting provides us an opportunity for reflection and connection with the divine. Prayers can help us set a tone for a productive meeting that does good work in His name. If you would like to say one of these prayers before your next meeting, we encourage you to do so.
Prayer brings us closer together to each other and to God. Asking Him to watch over the meeting invites Him to help all of you. You can also follow your meeting up with a prayer to close the meeting together.
Depending on the context of your meeting you might want to take a few minutes to share one of these prayers together or you could offer Him your own prayer on behalf of everyone else there.
