The Prayer Appointed for the Week - Monday Nearest May 18th

Almighty and merciful God,
in your goodness keep me, I pray,
from all things that may hurt me,
that I, being ready both in mind and body,
may accomplish with a free heart those things which belong to your purpose;
through Jesus Christ my Lord,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
