Carol Service Collects: God coming to us now (Redub)


Loving God,
you embraced the world with love,
when, in Jesus, you were taken
into the embrace of Mary and Joseph.
May we join the joy of creation,
as you liberate our world and our lives.
Amen.

The Gunning Fog readability index suggests 6.01 years of formal education is required to understand this prayer on a first reading, the Common Worship prayer requires 15.62 years.

This is a redub of the Common Worship Additional Collect for 'Christmas Eve'. It may be suitable for use after the relevant reading/s at a Carol Service.

The project began Advent 2012.

If you want to use the prayers, an acknowledgement of myself as author and, if there's space, the url to my blog would be much appreciated.
