Bishop's blessing! 5th Sunday of Lent! Passion Sunday!
May the Lord make to arise within you the power of His love, and through the observation of fastings pour forth in you the gift of His blessing. Amen. Thus you offer holocausts of your frugality to Him, so that you are pleasing by your contriteness of heart, and sacrifice of humility. Amen. Thus may your prayer of the fast and alms-giving and other things which are elevated arise unto the ears of your Creator, so that you may be made inheritors of eternal blessing, and be made to consort with the supernal community. 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.

Bishop's blessing! 4th Sunday of Lent.
4th Sunday of Lent
Mid Lent
May God who
is pleased to lead you through the meditation of these present forty days; may
He be pleased to bless you with His mercy. Amen. May He accept your past
abstinence. And may He reward [you] at His pleasure in the future, as [you
abstain] from illicit food, so may He grant that you abstain from all that is
sinful. Amen.
Moreover,
by those past and future fruits of spiritual charisms through Him, you will be
paid for freely, owing nothing to Him, absolved, and will be able to cross to
holy Pascha. 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
