Evensong offered for special intentions during Lent at STM

Lenten Daily Office Ordo for St. Thomas More Catholic Church, Toronto
Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter



As a mission church we are committed to praying the Daily Office. During Lent every family and individual is asked to offer EVENING PRAYER for:

+ the intentions of the Church and the Holy Father     

+  for the role of STM in the New Evangelization

+ for outreach to those who would be brought into the full communion of the Catholic Church through the Personal Ordinariate from many backgrounds and experiences.

A PRAYER FOR THE HOLY FATHER
O GOD, the pastor and ruler of all the faithful, mercifully look upon thy servant Francis whom thou hast been pleased to set as pastor over thy Church: grant him, we beseech Thee, to be in word and teaching a wholesome example to the people committed to his charge; that he with them may attain unto eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord.

We pray that by the grace of the Holy Spirit and the Sacred Heart of Jesus we may worship and serve God in the beauty of holiness and so be sustained and grow as a community of faith in the midst of the city.

Our thanks to Tim Smith for assembling the material for the Canadian version of the Ordinariate Ordo in compliance with the Roman Lectionary and the Universal Calendar of the Catholic Church.

This work assumes the form of the Daily Office presented in the Book of Divine Worship [BDW] is used. The lectionary included is also that of the BDW with the exceptions as noted in the Appendix. Assembled 2013, Tim Smith. Please report any errors to Tim Smith (observer@telusplanet.net)
