 But do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.

O Lord our God, you are worthy to receive glory and honor and power; because you have created all things, and by your  will they were created and have their being.

Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. For everything in heaven and on earth is yours. Yours, O Lord, is the kingdom, and you are exalted as head over all.

Let us with gladness present the offerings and oblations of our life and labor to the Lord.

Preface of the Lord’s Day

1.  Of God the Father

For you are the source of light and life, you made us in your image, and called us to new life in Jesus Christ our Lord.

2.  Of God the Son

Through Jesus Christ our Lord; who on the first day of the week overcame death and the grave, and by his glorious  resurrection opened to us the way of everlasting life.
