O God of light and love, who illumined thy Church through the witness of thy servant William Temple: Inspire us, we pray, by his teaching and example, that we may rejoice with courage, confidence and faith in the Word made flesh, and may be led to establish that city which has justice for its foundation and love for its law; through Jesus Christ, the light of the world, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
#WilliamTemple, Archbishop of Canterbury and Teacher of the Faith is remembered today. He is especially remembered for his ecumenical efforts and also for his concern with social issues leading to the creation of state welfare provision after WW2. He died in 1944. pic.twitter.com/LqlRsk6ZHM
