First Sunday after Easter/Resurrection Day Bishop's Blessing


Bishop's blessing, 1st Sunday after Easter. May God who's only - begotten Son was pleased to appear on this day to His Disciples while the doors were closed, be pleased to fill you by the gift of his Blessing, and be pleased to open the doors of the Heavenly Kingdom to you. Amen. And may He Who cut away wounds of doubt from their breasts by taking on the wounds of his Body, grant that by faith you may believe that He is risen and that you may be without the stains of all deficiencies. Amen. And may you, who believe He is God and Lord, along with Thomas who's exclamations and bowing down were drawn forth from him, be strong enough to be watchful against all evils in this age, and be strong enough to stand present in the congregation of the Saints in the future. 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
