Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! Psalm 107:1a

Dear Friends in Christ,
I hope that you and yours are having a wonderful holiday weekend! Pray for our country on this our 249th birthday.
Lord God Almighty, you have made all the peoples of the earth for your glory, to serve you in freedom and in peace: Give to the people of our country a zeal for justice and the strength of forbearance, that we may use our liberty in accordance with your gracious will; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
-Collect for the Nation, Book of Common Prayer, page 258
God bless you this Fourth of July Weekend and always!
Yours in Christ,
-Tom
