PRAYER FOR THE DAY

Wednesday, 28 August 2024
Your browser does not support the audio element.

Almighty God,
who called your Church to bear witness
that you were in Christ reconciling the world to yourself:
help us to proclaim the good news of your love,
that all who hear it may be drawn to you;
through him who was lifted up on the cross,
and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

The Thirteenth Sunday after Trinity
