Diocesan Collect
"Father in Heaven, whose blessed Son was born into an earthly family: Bless, we pray, the families of our church and our communities that Your love may rest upon us, and Your presence may be felt in every home. Teach us to love our families as you love us; Help us to bear one another’s burdens with patience and understanding; and bind us together with cords that can not be broken; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen."
