A Prayer for Today: “Almighty God, who shows to them that be in error the light of your truth, to the intent that they may return into the way of righteousness: Grant unto all them that are admitted into the fellowship of Christ’s faith, that they may eschew those things that are contrary to their profession, and follow all such things as are agreeable to the same; through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.” (BCP 1662 – The Third Sunday after Easter)

“But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.”
– The Apostle Paul, Acts 20:24
