The Annunciation to Mary

Collect

Grant, O Lord, that we who have known the incarnation of your Son Jesus Christ by the message of an angel, and rejoice that in the fullness of time you sent Him, born of a woman, to redeem those under the law and to make us your children and heirs through adoption, may by His cross and passion be brought to the glory of His resurrection, and so lear to trust in your mercy, walk in obedience like Mary, and proclaim the coming of Emmanuel, God with us; through Him who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
