Prayers and Intercessions | Mission St Clare | Book of Common Prayer

Lent - Year B (Mark)

Collect for the Day:

Almighty God, you know that we have no power in ourselves

to help ourselves: Keep us both outwardly in our bodies and
inwardly in our souls, that we may be defended from all adversities
which may happen to the body, and from all evil thoughts which may
assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God,
forever and ever. Amen.

For Mission
Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love
on the hardwood of the cross that everyone might come
within the reach  of your saving embrace: So clothe us
in your Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love,
may bring those who do not know you to the
knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name. Amen.

A Collect for the Renewal of Life

O God, the King eternal,

who divides the day from the night

and turns the shadow of death into the morning:

Drive far from us all wrong desires,

incline our hearts to keep your law,

and guide our feet into the way of peace;

that, having done your will with cheerfulness while it was day,

we may, when night comes,

rejoice to give you thanks;

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
