Collect of the Day: Proper 12

O God, the protector of all who trust in you, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy: Increase and multiply upon us your mercy; that, with you as our ruler and guide, we may so pass through things temporal, that we lose not the things eternal; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

For Mission

Almighty and everlasting God, 
by whose Spirit the whole body of your faithful people 
is governed and sanctified: 
Receive our supplications and prayers 
which we offer before you for 
all members of your holy Church, 
that in their vocation and ministry 
they may truly and devoutly serve you; 
through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
