Winter (Advent) Ember Days: I

Posted by petrus, on December 14th, 2016

Ember Days at the four seasons: Winter

Winter, by Abel Grimmer (1565–1630). From Wikipedia.

The Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday following the Third Sunday in Advent (or the feast of St Lucy, December 13) are the traditional winter Ember Days.

Almighty Lord and everlasting Father, who wouldest have the kingdoms of the world become the kingdom of thy Son Jesus Christ: Bestow thy blessing, we beseech thee, upon all who labour for peace and righteousness among the nations, that the day may be hastened when war shall be no more, and thou shalt take the nations for thine inheritance; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
