North Star Thanks Before the Meal Print

We created a thanks before the meal for our Scout Programs.  The thanks before the meal can mean many things to many people.  Many of our Scouts will be thanking a higher power, others thanking the cook and their friends, and still others simply expressing appreciation to be alive.  We enable our Scouts to have a spiritual approach to their lives, though we do not interpret or define what that is for our Scouts.  Each is an individual who contributes in their own way. girl with match lighting candle We created a thanks before the meal that everyone can feel comfortable saying.  It is our Scout Spirit of inclusion which led to the creation of the thanks for the meal for North Star Scouts below:

 

For the food before us, the friends beside us, and for all those things we hold nearest and dearest to our hearts, we are thankful.
