A call to prayer for the primatial nominations process

God most holy, God most strong, whose wisdom is the cross of Christ:
Be present with the Order of Bishops as they take counsel this week to nominate fellow bishops for the office of Primate in our church.
Look with kindness and gentleness on those who accept nomination:
give them a sure trust in your wisdom and love,
humble hearts,
and surrender to your call,
through and in the strong name of Jesus. Amen.
