Collect for Ash Wednesday

Let it be your bread we eat, your world we serve

---

God of the desert,

as we follow Jesus into the unknown,

may we recognise the tempter when

he comes;

let it be your bread we eat,

your world we serve and you alone

we worship.

This we ask through Jesus Christ our

Redeemer.

Amen.

E te Atua o te koraha,

e aru nei mātou i a Īhu ki ngā wāhi kāhore nei

mātou e mōhio,

meatia kia mātau mātou ki te kaiwhakawai ina

haere mai ia;

engari tukua kia kai mātou i tāu taro,

kia mahi ki tāu nei ao,

kia koropiko nei ki a koe anake.

E īnoi ai mātou i roto i a te Karaiti tō mātou

Kaihoko.

Āmine.
