Eighth Sunday after Trinity Sunday Additional Collect (Redub)

God, you are three-in-one
and one-in-three,
perfect unity in community.
In Christ you left the riches of heaven
to share our walk on earth’s holy ground
and bring liberation for our world.
In poverty and in plenty,
may we follow in all your ways.
Amen.

The Gunning Fog readability index suggests 9.73 years of formal education is required to understand this prayer on a first reading, the Common Worship prayer requires 16.8 years.

Here's the information on how this prayer is a redub.

My collection of five prayers for the Eighth Sunday after Trinity Sunday are here.

You can also look at the full Index of Prayers.

The project runs from Advent 2012.

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