Bishop's
blessing: May the Lord remove from you dangers of all temptations, and may He
mercifully exclude you from disturbances of gales. Amen. May He dissolve
all the frauds, indeed the exertions of the tempter, and make you cautious and
indeed invincible against him. Amen. May He grant unto you continuous gifts of
peace, and may He be satisfied to set you apart in a harbor that is tranquil
and indeed secure. Amen. May He Whose Kingdom and Dominion remain without end,
be pleased to sustain us unto ages of ages. Amen. May the blessing of
God: the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and the peace of the Lord be
ever with you. Amen. +William

Bishop's Blessing Sunday after Epiphany 1-05-2020
Subject: Bishop's blessing
Bishop's blessing; May Almighty
God Whose Only-begotten Son did not dissolve the law, but rather came to
fulfill it, receiving circumcision in the flesh; by spiritual circumcision
purge your mind from all of the attractions of sins, and pour forth into you
His blessing. Amen. And may He Who gave the law through Moses, so that He
might give blessing through our Mediator, remove from you the mortification of
sins, and make you to persevere in newness of virtues. Amen. This one [as
a human] in perfection of the sixth in number [day of creation of man] grant
that you may you live in this age and the seventh [day of creation] in number
that may you rest among the flock of spirits of the Saints, since renewed in
the eight-fold Resurrection [the eighth day of creation], and enriched in the
remission of the jubilee [eight days after Christmas], may you enter into joys
that remain without end. Amen. May He Whose Kingdom and Dominion remain without
end, be pleased to sustain us unto ages of ages. Amen. May the blessing of God:
the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit and the peace of the Lord be ever
with you. Amen. +William
