Morning Prayer Update for 7.14.23

Thanks so much, everyone, for your prayers. My surgery went well and the Lord is healing me. I am a bit sore and tired, so there will be no Morning Prayer episode for Friday, July 14, 2023. We will resume episodes Monday. Do look for a compilation of the songs from this past week over the weekend and the weekly email newsletter. Sign up here if you are not subscribed. Love you all! Less than a week to go in the summer giving campaign! Would you sow towards the ministry of Morning Prayer? It’s Friday of Ordinary Time, Proper 9 in the Church Calendar. July 14, 2023. This week we are following the Daily Office lectionary with an episode Monday through Thursday. If you have a prayer request please submit it here. Sign up here for the email list.

Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake. Amen.
