The Civitan Creed

I am Civitan:  as old as life, as young as the rainbow, as endless as time

My hands do the work of the world and reach out in service to others

My ears hear the cry of children and the call throughout the world for peace, guidance and unity

My eyes search for others to join in the fellowship and service of Civitan

My mouth utters the call to daily duty and speaks prayers in every tongue

My mind teaches me to respect the law and the flag of my country

My heart beats for every friend, bleeds for every injury to humanity and throbs with joy at every triumph of truth

My soul knows no fear but its own unworthiness

My hope is for a better world through Civitan

My Motto:  Builders of good citizenship

My Belief:  Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

My Pledge:  to practice the Golden Rule and to build upon it a better and nobler citizenship.
