My fellow delegates, it is time to open this convention with a few words acknowledging our dependence upon the Lord for His blessings and mercies toward our dear country, and also to people of good will everywhere.
Dear Lord,
We come to you today humbly asking your blessings on this convention. We acknowledge that we often stray from your ways. Please guide us back to the way of understanding. We want to do Your will in our personal and our public lives, and to be a blessing to others through our thoughts and actions. Lord, you know what is the best and right path for Tellia. Please make us sensitive to Your leading so we may follow this path faithfully. Please bless the delegates to this convention, and also the candidates who will be running for government positions. Give us wisdom, Lord, so that we may make wise decisions and govern justly in Your name.
We also ask you to watch over those who are in danger along the Gulf Coast of the United States, that you will protect them from harm and minimize the destruction they are facing.
Thank you, Lord, for hearing and answering our prayers. We ask these things in the Name of Your Son Jesus. Amen

The audience, moved by the prayer given by Miss Luminaslight, begins cheering. Following the prayer, the lights in the arena dim, and another commercial is played on the large screens.The lights turn back on and Mr. Gambetta begins walking towards the podium from the back of the stage, waving to his supporters.
