Second Sunday of Advent
Merciful God, who sent your messengers the prophets to preach repentance and prepare the way for our salvation: Give us grace to heed their warnings and forsake our sins, that we may greet with joy the coming of Jesus Christ our Redeemer; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
A prayer for the Bishop Search
Almighty God, giver of every good gift and source of all wisdom and understanding, look graciously on your church and so guide the minds and hearts of those who will choose our next bishop. We pray that you will grant wisdom and discernment to those who offer themselves as candidates. Give them a spirit of revelation and knowledge of your will, so that they may care for all your people and equip us for our ministries; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
