Okay, I understand that I have to keep the boiler plate words. ?I will add some words of my own when I figure out how to make them a permanent part of my new default messages. ?A question that comes up is: can I choose to put them where ever I want or do the added words always go in a specific place? Thanks for your understanding of a new and not particularly tech-savvy user.
Paul, it is fairly straightforward.

Go to Admin, Settings, and choose the Member Notices button.

Click on New Notice (blue button below the list)

Use the dropdown menu to choose Invite. (The menu is under Notice Type, Welcome).

I just did it again in my test group and I liked Shal's suggestion of putting a horizontal line first. Open the three bar hamburger menu to see all the editing tools.
Click on the horizontal line. (3rd one on the second line)

Type whatever you want to add to the message. Notice you can change the text size, font, colour, etc.

If you are using the style to separate your text, put in another horizontal line.

And then click on Add Notice. This saves it.

When you are ready to invite someone, pick this invitation.

Note, you can have more than one invite notice. And you can change the heading - Invite to main group, perhaps. Or invite mentioning blah blah subgroup.
Whatever works for you.
