Heavenly Father, creator of unbelievable splendor of all the great outdoors, as well as the tiniest spark of emotion in our hearts, we ask your gracious blessings on our gathering here tonight. We ask that you recognize us as stewards of your abundant earthly gifts. Realize, Father, that we humbly acknowledge the awesome responsibility you present us to care for your world, making certain that our children & grandchildren will inherit that passed on to us by our fathers & grandfathers, and made better for our having passed through. As we gather tonight as brothers and sisters, and pledge the support and friendship of our fellow sportsmen, we ask that you allow our light to shine as an inviting beacon to all those of like-mind to come and enjoy the warmth of a campfire, the celebration of the harvest, and the raising of a glass. We’ll never forget that you’re at every campfire, and only through your holy blessings will our tireless efforts be rewarded. Be with each sportsman here this evening and go with each of us as we leave. Please, assist us in our efforts. Keep us safe, focus our aim, steady our hands, calm our nerves, and guide our shots. In your most holy name…Amen
