I’ve heard a rumor that the nominee for the next #ArchbishopOfCanterbury will be announced today. Seems like a good time to pray for the unity of the Church:
Oh God, Creator of our Redeemer Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace: Give us grace seriously to lay to heart the great dangers we are in by our unhappy divisions; take away all hatred & prejudice, & whatever else may hinder us from godly union & concord; that, as there is but one Body & one Spirit, one hope of our calling, one Redeemer, one Faith, one Baptism, one God & Creator of us all, so we all may be of one heart & of one soul, united in one holy bond of truth & peace, of faith & charity, & may with one mind & one mouth glorify You; through Jesus Christ. Amen.
(From the #Episcopal #BCP edited by me for inclusive language.)
Almighty God, we thank you for the hard & honest efforts of the nominating committee & ask your blessings on them, their chosen candidate, & all the people of the Anglican Communion. Amen.
