Happy New Year!  This is the second Sunday after Christmas Day.  We will be gathering for Morning Prayer to ring in the new year.  We pray that 2021 will be a year filled with healing, kindness, justice, and mercy and that everyone will come to know the love of God and share it with one another.

 The Collect of the Day for this Sunday:

O God, who wonderfully created, and yet more wonderfully restored, the dignity of human nature: Grant that we may share the divine life of him who humbled himself to share our humanity, your Son Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

 A Prayer for the Future of the Human Race: O God our heavenly Father, you have blessed us and given us dominion over all the earth: Increase our reverence before the mystery of life; and give us new insight into your purposes for the human race, and new wisdom and determination in making provision for its future in accordance with your will; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.
