Remembrance Sunday/2nd Before Advent
Readings:
Isaiah 2: 1-5; Ps 4; Romans 8: 31-39; Matthew 5: 1-12
Heavenly Father, whose blessed Son was revealed to destroy the works of the devil and to make us the children of God and heirs of eternal life: Grant that we, having this hope, may purify ourselves even as he is pure; that when he shall appear in power and great glory, we may be made like him in his eternal and glorious kingdom; where he is alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.
