    Re: Sermon – 15 August 2004

    The Collect for Morning Prayer for Tuesdays just reminded me of your sermon (or vice versa):

    O God,

    Who set before us the great hope

    That your Kingdom shall come o­n earth

    And taught us to pray for its coming:

    When the whole world shall reflect your glory;

    Through Jesus Christ our Lord
