        Scripture
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the
meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger
and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the
merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for
they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called
the children of God.
                                 - Matt 5:3-9
        Closing Scripture
Acts: 21: 5 But when our time was up, we left and continued on our way. All
the disciples and their wives and children accompanied us out of the city,
and there on the beach (*steps) we knelt to pray. *added for emphasis
