Prayer for the Diocese

 

Christ is Risen: The world below lies desolate
Christ is Risen: The spirits of evil are fallen
Christ is Risen: The angels of God are rejoicing
Christ is Risen: The tombs of the dead are empty
Christ is Risen indeed from the dead,
the first of the sleepers,
Glory and power are his forever and ever

St. Hippolytus (AD 190-236)

Prayer for Camp 2025

Dear Lord, may your glory be done in this gathering to come.  Bless those who are preparing the event and may all be done to further you in our world.  Amen.
