Happy Feast of St. James!
July 25 is the Feast of St. James the Apostle. Wherever we may be in our earthly pilgrimage, may we know the blessing of shared food, shared friendship, and shared journeys.
O gracious God, we remember before you today your servant James the Apostle, first among the Twelve to drink the cup of our Lord’s suffering through his martyrdom, and great protector of pilgrims; we pray that you would make us strong in faith and happy in hope, that our pilgrim journey would always follow the path of Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
