At St. Bede's we offer spiritual formation for adults and children alike.
EDUCATION & FORMATION
Lord of all power and might, the author and giver of all good things: Graft in our hearts the love of your Name; increase in us true religion; nourish us with all goodness; and bring forth in us the fruit of good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen. This is the collect for Proper 17 for Sunday, August 21. I especially love the petition to “increase in us true religion.” That may be essentially the work of our lives as Christians. Read more
