The Collect of the Day: Almighty God, you know that we have no power in ourselves to help ourselves: Keep us both outwardly in our bodies and inwardly in our souls, that we may be defended from all adversities which may happen to the body, and from all evil thoughts which may assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and 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.
