A Prayer for Independence Day

The outdoor chapel was beautiful for Independence Day this past Sunday. Communion was had by all. I found this prayer for the 4th, from an Episcopal Church prayer book:

Lord God Almighty, in whose name the founders of this country won liberty for themselves and for us, and lit the torch of freedom for nations then unborn: Grant, we beseech thee, that we and all the people of this land may have the grace to maintain these liberties in righteousness and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. Blessings this week, Diana
