God of mercy,
your Son proclaimed good news to the poor,
release to captives,
and freedom to the oppressed:
anoint us with your Holy Spirit
and set all people free
to praise you in Christ our Lord. Amen.
Collect for Epiphany 3
As we are in the season of Epiphany, our Gospel readings in January will explore how God reveals himself to us through Jesus, his Son. This week, we find Jesus in his home synagogue. Called up to read from Scripture, he chooses a passage from Isaiah that speaks of what he has come to do, which is to surprise everyone by caring for the fallen and forgotten. It is who Jesus is. It is who we are called to be.
Enjoy pondering how you are following his example.
Every blessing,
Revd Katrina (Vicar)
