Happy Rogation Sunday!
Traditionally, Rogation is celebrated with the “beating of the bounds,” or a prayer walk around the boundary of the parish asking for God’s protection in the coming year. Farmers would also have their crops blessed in hopes of a bountiful harvest. We pray for God’s blessing in the year to come!
“Almighty God, Lord of heaven and earth: We humbly pray that your gracious providence may give and preserve to our use the harvests of the land and of the seas, and may prosper all who labor to gather them, that we, who are constantly receiving good things from your hand, may always give you thanks; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.” (BCP, Collects of the Christian Year)
