Lenten Ember Days

Ordination by Nicolas Poussin

Ordination by Nicolas Poussin (1594–1665)

¶ The Lenten (Spring) Ember Days are traditionally observed on the Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays after the First Sunday in Lent.

O God, who hast made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on the face of the earth, and didst send thy blessed Son Jesus Christ to preach peace to them that are afar off and to them that are nigh: Grant that all peoples of the world may feel after thee and find thee; and hasten, O Lord, the fulfilment of thy promise to pour out thy Spirit upon all flesh; through the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
