Willibrord, Bishop and Missionary, 739 November 7
O Lord our God, you call whom you will and send them where you choose: We thank you for sending your servant Willibrord to be an apostle to the Low Countries, to turn them from the worship of idols to serve you, the living God; and we entreat you to preserve us from the temptation to exchange the perfect freedom of your service for servitude to false gods and to idols of our own devising; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

The gathering, in addition to giving an opportunity for fellowship over light snacks, is a Bible study on next Sunday's readings, which might allow you to worship more fully if you intend to go to one of the morning services on November 13, Remembrance Sunday. It will be a chance also to talk about prayers...
