Almighty God, who didst give to thy servant Argula von Grumbach a spirit of wisdom and power to love thy Word and to boldly draw others unto its truth: Pour out that same spirit upon us, so that we, knowing and loving thy Holy Word, may be unashamed of Christ and may not sin against the Holy Spirit that is within us, Amen.
Argula von Grumbach (1490-1564) used her unique position (she answered only to the Emperor, within her noble station) to question the church and advocate for others.
