 Opening Ritual: Sisters in Beta
Sigma Phi, we pledge ourselves anew to the aims and purposes of our
glorious sisterhood; more tolerance for our fellow beings through a
better understanding of them; a clearer and deeper appreciation of the
cultural and finer things in life for ourselves; and a detrmination
to give the best that is in us to our sorority and to assist in any
and every way to shed the light of our torch throughout the world. |
| Closing Ritual: Eternal
Father, Shepherd of the stars, guide us that we may follow ony the good,
only the true, only the beautiful. Hold aloft to us the guiding torch
of wisdom and help us to push on, undaunted, toward its light. Illumine
our souls with Thy wisdom, that we in turn may light the way for those
who follow us. If the road we take seems obscured in dust, give us the
skill and grace to pave it with stars, to transmute the dust into stardust.
Grant us such clearness of vision, such sweetness of spirit, such earnestness
of purpose, that we may follow the torch to our goal. |
| Mizpah: May the
Lord watch between me and thee, while we are absent one from the other. |
