The Collect of the Day: Almighty God, whose blessed Son was led by the Spirit to be tempted by Satan: Come quickly to help us who are assaulted by many temptations; and, as you know the weaknesses of each of us, let each one find you mighty to save; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Revised Common Lectionary readings for this Sunday:
From The Great Litany:
Remember not, Lord Christ, our offenses,
nor the offenses of our forefathers;
neither reward us according to our sins.
Spare us, good Lord, spare thy people,
whom thou hast redeemed with thy most precious blood,
and by thy mercy preserve us, for ever. Lord. Amen.
