It’s the Second Friday After the Epiphany in the Church Calendar.
This week we are following the Daily Office lectionary with an episode Monday through Friday.
Praying today for John in Nigeria.
Our general order and lectionary comes from the Book of Common Prayer Daily Office. We’ll sing “We Make Space” by Jason Ingram, Jonathan Helser, Melissa Helser, and Steffany Gretzinger. We’ll read Psalm 31 followed by the Gloria Patri. Our Gospel reading is Mark 4:35-41 . We’ll say the Apostles’ Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, and the Collect of the Day. We’ll then have a time of prompted prayer.
If you have a prayer request please submit it here. Sign up here for the email list.

Collect of the Day
Second Sunday after the Epiphany, Rite Two
Almighty God, whose Son our Savior Jesus Christ is the light of the world: Grant that your people, illumined by your Word and Sacraments, may shine with the radiance of Christ’s glory, that he may be known, worshiped, and obeyed to the ends of the earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
