5. Of the Holy Eucharist
*Especially suitable for Thursdays*
God our Father, whose Son our Lord Jesus Christ in a
wonderful Sacrament hath left unto us a memorial of his

the fruit of his redemption; who liveth and reigneth with
thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Almighty God, whose beloved Son willingly endured the
agony and shame of the cross for our redemption: Give us

him; who liveth and reigneth with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.

7. For all Baptized Christians
*Especially suitable for Saturdays*
Grant, O Lord God, to all who have been baptized into the
death and resurrection of thy Son Jesus Christ, that, as we
have put away the old life of sin, so we may be renewed in
the spirit of our minds, and live in righteousness and true
holiness; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth
and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one
God, now and for ever. Amen.
