Prayer of the Day
Historical Collect
Almighty and everlasting God, you have given us grace to make the confession of a true faith. We acknowledge your glorious eternal Trinity, and we adore the unity of your majestic work. Defend us by this faith from all adversity and opposition to your way; through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
Thematic Collect
Majestic Trinity, mystery of Three-in-One and One-in-Three, we worship you. Before time, your love burst forth creating the world in which you took delight. Strengthen us in our faith, defend us from all evil and temptation, and bring us into the everlasting presence of your love; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God now and forever. Amen.
Prayers of the Church
For Faithful Worship
Majestic Trinity, the fullness of your identity is a mystery beyond human comprehension. Yet you have chosen to reveal to us your presence, grace, and forgiveness through the Word and sacraments. Teach us to worship you in purity of heart, with reverence and awe. Lord in your mercy, hear our prayer.
For the Promise and Joy of Creation
Holy Three in One, you have created all things and you continue to sustain us and the world. As spring turns to summer, may the beauty of your creation and the never-failing cycle of new beginnings keep us mindful of your never-failing promises to your people. Lord in your mercy, hear our prayer.
For Unity
Holy One in Three, the mystery of your being is the perfect expression of the unity that you desire for all of your children. Help us to be peacemakers and seek unity where the world would encourage us to pursue division. Lord in your mercy, hear our prayer.
For Healing and Wholeness
Healing Lord, in you is perfect wholeness. Through the riches of your grace bring healing to all who suffer illness, debilitating pain, grief, or will be undergoing surgery. [Especially we pray for …].  Grant them your healing and wholeness. Lord in your mercy, hear our prayer.
