Uphold thy Church, O God of truth, as thou didst uphold thy servant Athanasius, to maintain and proclaim boldly the catholic faith against all opposition, trusting solely in the grace of thine eternal Word, who took upon himself our humanity that we might share his divinity; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

2 May 373, Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria and theologian, died in Egypt. He stood firm in a major early debate about who Jesus is, was exiled five times for his views, and helped shape the 27-book New Testament in the #Bible. He is a pivotal figure in Christian history. #OTD pic.twitter.com/7G4Xl9ScWW

O Blessed Lord, who didst promise thy disciples that through thy Easter victory their sorrow should be turned to joy, and their joy no man should take from them: Grant us, we pray thee, so to know thee in the power of thy resurrection, that we may be partakers of that joy which is unspeakable and full of glory; for thy holy name’s sake.

But I call upon God;
and and the Lord will save me.
Evening and morning and at noon
I utter my complaint and moan,
and he will hear my voice.

–Psalm 55:16-17
