Collect for St. Patrick's Day

Almighty God, who in thy providence didst choose thy servant Patrick to be the apostle of the Irish people, to bring those who were wandering in darkness and error to the true light and knowledge of thee: Grant us so to walk in that light that we may come at last to the light of everlasting life; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

-from The Book of Divine Worship

St. Patrick Breast Plate is one of my favorite hymns, why don't we sing it?

Gary, perhaps you should join the choir and agitate for it from within the system!

Talked to Mr. M....
He appears to open to a bribe.
