Almighty God, Who dost kindle in our hearts the flame of Thy holiness through the example of this Thy servant, Saint Ceolwulf of Northumbria; Grant to us, Thy humble servants, the same power of love, resoluteness of mind, and fortitude of faith; That as we rejoice in his triumph, we may profit by his example; Through Jesus Christ Thy Son, our Lord, Who livest and reigned with Thee, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, ever One God, world without end. Amen.
Today is the Feast of St. Ceolwulf of Northumbria.
