Praying the Collect Prayer
Day 3 of our 10 Days of Prayer falls on the Seventh Sunday of Easter, the Sunday after Ascension Day.
The Collect of the Seventh Sunday of Easter (Book of Common Prayer p.278)
O God the King of Glory,
you have exalted your only Son Jesus Christ
with great triumph to your kingdom in heaven:
Mercifully give us faith to know
that, as he promised,
he abides with us on earth to the end of time;
who is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Pray
For all those worshipping virtually today across our Diocese and further afield
Especially for those who have come to online worship who may not usually attend a physical Church Service – that they would know the power of God’s presence and enter into a deeper relationship with him
For Church leaders across the denominations as they seek to provide a prophetic voice in the most unusual circumstances
