Say your prayer silently to yourself. Do not try to impose your religious views on others - if praying before you eat is necessary, do it by yourself.

Unless the ask u to say the prayer just quietly bow your head and pray in silent and when someone asks u what u are doing tell them ... but dont make a scene with someone eating since they didnt know u wanted to pray... just say your own silent prayer and bless the whole family and stuff, and then enjoy your party...

When you are out at a party, just say a silent prayer to yourself, and leave the organizing of the party to the host. If the host, knowing you're a born again Christian, asks you if you would kindly say a prayer before eating, then, of course, reciprocate..otherwise, again, say your silent prayer....

Just say a silent prayer and eat. God will not strike you dead, and you will not use your salvation if you do not pray aloud at every meal. This was a birthday party, not a bible study. No wonder non Christians think we are weird.

Pray to yourself, silently and never force your beliefs on anyone else or draw attention to your religion by asking about your prayers at the table.

whether it is a marriage party or birthday party Even if the prayer has been conducted we have to specifically pray/thank ourself to God in our mind for His mercy to attend the marriage/birthday. WE are duty bound to thank Him for His Mercies all time

"say a little prayer by yourself. you cant force others to pray with you if they dont want to. so say a little prayer to yourself, and let them do what they want"
I agree you were a guest at there place.

Sit quietly and say your prayers mentally. You do not need to impose on others. If your god is omniscient, s/he will know what you are saying. It is unnecessary to pray openly and loudly.

It's OK to just pray to yourself...unless you work it out ahead of time it would be rude to others. It's fine, don't sweat it.

say a prayer by yourself. you dont have to say it all together. or maybe before food is even being served you (or someone else) can say a blessing so your problem will be resolved
