Speaking of Prayer and Advent

Listen to the Collect for the Fourth Sunday of Advent from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer:

Lord, raise up (we pray thee) thy power,
and come among us, and with great
might succour us; that whereas, through our
sins and wickedness, we are sore let and
hindered in running the race that is set before
us, thy bountiful grace and mercy may speedily
help and deliver us, through the satisfaction of
thy Son our Lord, to whom, with thee and the
Holy Spirit, be honour and glory, world
without end. Amen.

    Dearest Father Neo,

    Check under your Mater Dei section for the end of my sermon for Sunday. I think you will appreciate the Orthodox reference. I’ll post the whole sermon on Monday.

    Do you still want to complete my training?
