Collect for the First Sunday of Advent

When Christ appears

Collect

God of hope,

When Christ your Son appears

may he not find us asleep or idle,

but active in his service and ready;

through the same Jesus Christ our Redeemer.

Amen


E te Atua o te tūmanako,

kia puta mai tāu Tama te Karaiti

aua ia e kite i a mātou e moe ana, e

māngere ana,

engari kia tū mataara i roto i āna

mahi;

E īnoi ai mātou i roto i a te Karaiti tō

mātou Kaihoko. Āmine.
