It’s Monday of Ordinary Time, Proper 15 in the Church Calendar. August 21, 2023.
Praying today for the effects of severe weather in Southern California in the US.
Our general order and lectionary comes from the Book of Common Prayer Daily Office. We’ll sing “Goodness of God” by Ben Fielding, Brian Johnson, Ed Cash, Jason Ingram, and Jenn Johnson and we’ll include a prayer of confession. We’ll read Psalm 106:1-18 followed by the Gloria Patri. Our Scripture lesson is Acts 22:30-23:11 . 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.

Proper 15 – Almighty God, you have given your only Son to be for us a sacrifice for sin, and also an example of godly life: Give us grace to receive thankfully the fruits of his redeeming work, and to follow daily in the blessed steps of his most holy life; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
