Today you’re invited to reflect on the word ‘Angel.
Today is Christmas Eve, and there are no Magnificat Antiphons for Evening Prayer as it will be after sunset and the start of the Festival. The Antiphon for the Magnificat through the Chrsitmas Season is To us is born this day a Saviour, Christ the Lord. (Luke 2.11).
A Collect for Christmas Eve is Almighty God, you make us glad with the yearly remembrance of the birth of your Son Jesus Christ: grant that, as we joyfully receive him as our redeemer, so we may with sure confidence behold him when he shall come to be our judge; who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
