Christ –
Image of the invisible God.
Firstborn of all creation. Firstborn from the dead.
In You all things were created – things visible and invisible, whether thrones, dominions, rulers, or powers. All things have been created through You and for You.
In You, through You, for You – all things hold together.
Strengthen us with Your power. Prepare us to endure everything with patience.
In the name of the One who enables us to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light…
Amen.
(Reign of Christ is Sunday, November 20.)
