Entrance Antiphon
God is the strength of his people.
In him, we his chosen live in safety.
Save us, Lord, who share in your life, and give us your blessing;
be our shepherd forever.

The Collect
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 our hold on things eternal;
grant this, heavenly Father,
for our Lord Jesus Christ’s sake,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

Entrance Antiphon
Lord, hear my voice when I call to you.
You are my help; do not cast me off, do not desert me, my Saviour God.

The Collect
Almighty God,
you have broken the tyranny of sin,
and have sent the Spirit of your Son into our hearts,
whereby we call you Father:
give us grace to dedicate our freedom to your service,
that we and all creation may be brought
to the glorious liberty of the children of God;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
