Aidan

O loving God, who called your servant Aidan from the peace of a cloister to re-establish the Christian mission in northern England, and endowed him with gentleness, simplicity and strength: Grant, we ask you, that we, following his example, may use what you have given us for the relief of human need, and may persevere in commending the saving Gospel of our Redeemer Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

12:40 p.m. - 1:20 p.m.

Bound within the Book of Common Prayer, the 39 Articles are more specific than the creeds, and yet, while reflecting the controversies of the Reformation period, they also have a certain timeliness. One notable feature is that, unlike the creeds, the 39 Articles go on to speak of matters pertaining to the state. Over several weeks, Father Austin will guide a reading of the Articles and give theological commentary on their continuing meaning for us.
