Collects and Prayers - January 24, 2010 - The Third Sunday After Epiphany

Greeting
Leader: In the House of the Lord, there is neither Greek nor Jew,
People: nor slave nor free;
Leader: neither woman nor man,
People: but all children of the same God,
Leader: one Church, one Body
People: with Christ Jesus as the head.

Collect
Glorious God,
Source of all joy and righteousness,
Who anoints the lowly and exalts the poor,
Who sends good news to the captives and the oppressed,
Grant that we may find your Spirit within us,
That we may boldly profess of your Kingdom,
Unafraid and in unity with our Christian brothers and sisters,
Through Jesus Christ our Lord,
Who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
One God, now and forever. Amen
