3 God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him.

4 The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone.

5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.

Prayer Focus

To trust in Christ who is the same yesterday, today, and forever

Grant us, O Lord God, the knowledge of your divine words, and fill us with the understanding of your holy gospel and the riches of your divine gifts and the indwelling of your Holy Spirit; and give us with joy to keep your commandments and accomplish them and fulfill your will and to be accounted worthy of the blessings and the mercies that are from you now and at all times.
