Ritz @ 50 Program: A Golden Birthday Script!

EMCEE: Good afternoon to all of us. We are glad that you could join us to honor and celebrate with my
mom, Rizza as she marks fifty years of her sojourn in this world. This 50th birthday heralds the rebirth of
a relaxed woman who has fulfilled her obligations. Therefore, this party is a good time to say “Thank
you” to our mom, sister, aunt, grandma, and our friend for finding room in her heart for us every day.
It’s our way of reminding her that we’ll always be here for her. It’s also an avenue of saying “We love
you very much”. Above all, a great way to say, “Thank you Jesus for your blessings and life”. Ladies and
gentlemen, sit back as we enjoy her party this afternoon.

EMCEE: But before we go on, it is my great honor to introduce her most special guests this afternoon.
Without them, her life would be empty and unhappy. Let us all give a big round of applause to each and
one of us, as we are all here to celebrate another milestone in her life. This afternoon is a celebration,
and a thanksgiving of the life God has given to our lovable celebrator.
