Collect for Pentecost
May 19, 2013
O God, who on the day of Pentecost taught the hearts of your
faithful people by sending to them the light of your Holy Spirit:
Grant us by the same spirit to have a right judgment in all things,
and evermore to rejoice in his holy comfort; through Jesus Christ
your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity
of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
For Congress and the President
O Lord our Governor, whose glory is in all the world: Grant to the President of the United States, and to Congress, wisdom and strength to know and to do your will. Fill them with the love of truth and righteousness, and make them ever mindful of their calling to serve this people in your fear; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit. one God, world without end. Amen.
