Happy Second Sunday after the Epiphany!
The AOC Sunday Report can be downloaded RIGHT HERE!
Today's report has great sermons from Bishops Jerry and Roy, as well as Revs Jack and Bryan. For whatever reason, I really appreciated Jack's, but read each of them and form your own opinion. Each of them is really outstanding.
There are a lot of people who need your prayer, what a surprise. Take a look, start with Shamu, Bob, Jim, Mrs. Kay and work out from there. All of us in the United States of America would appreciate a prayer for our country. You might consider this one from the Book of Common Prayer:
For Our Country. BCP 36
A |
LMIGHTY God, who hast given us this good land for our heritage; We humbly beseech thee that we may always prove ourselves a people mindful of thy favour and glad to do thy will. Bless our land with honourable industry, sound learning, and pure manners. Save us from violence, discord, and confusion; from pride and arrogancy, and from every evil way. Defend our liberties, and fashion into one united people the multitudes brought hither out of many kindreds and tongues. Endue with the spirit of wisdom those to whom in thy Name we entrust the authority of government, that there may be justice and peace at home, and that, through obedience to thy law, we may show forth thy praise among the nations of the earth. In the time of prosperity, fill our hearts with thankfulness, and in the day of trouble, suffer not our trust in thee to fail; all of which we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
There is an interesting and probably epic week ahead, you will not find the good without the help of that Third God Guy, the Holy Ghost. Open your heart, then LISTEN and ACT.
Have a great week.
Godspeed,
Church of the Faithful Centurion
