Collect for the 16th Sunday in Ordinary Time
God our home,
in Christ you are always with us;
in all our daily activities help us not to be so
worried and distracted by many things
that we forget the one thing we need
and lose the better part,
which will be ours forever;
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
