St Matthew Apostle and Evangelist
“God’s love is extravagant—prodigal in the best sense—welcoming the lost, restoring the broken, and inviting us to the feast through Jesus Christ, our True Older Brother. From Isaiah’s invitation to come and eat to the Father’s embrace in Luke 15, we see that it is God’s character always to have mercy.”
Second Sunday of Advent
Almighty and everlasting God, you govern all things both in heaven and on earth: Mercifully hear the supplications of your people, and in our time grant us your peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Ministry in the Flesh
The Sixth Sunday after Pentecost (Proper 8)
O God, your never-failing providence sets in order all things both in heaven and on earth: Put away from us all hurtful things, and give us those things that are profitable for us; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Future Hope. Future Glory.
The Eighth Sunday after Pentecost
O God, you declare your almighty power chiefly in showing mercy and pity: Grant us the fullness of your grace, that we, running to obtain your promises, may become partakers of your heavenly treasure; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
The Spirit of Christ
The Second Sunday after Pentecost
Let your merciful ears, O Lord, be open to the prayers of your humble servants; and, that we may receive what we ask, teach us by your Holy Spirit to ask only those things that are pleasing to you; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the same Spirit lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen.
