Collect for the 2nd Sunday in Lent

Services
Written By Opawa-St Martins Parish

Collect

God, steadfast in love and purpose,

your Son was not diverted from Jerusalem and the cross.

Amid all business and distraction keep us focussed on your purpose.

In times of uncertainty or anxiety, steady us.

Through Jesus Christ our Liberator,

who is alive and reigns with you,

in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

one God, now and for ever.

Amen.
