Almighty God, who after the creation of the world rested from all your works and sanctified a day of rest for all your creatures: Grant that we, putting away all earthly anxieties, may be duly prepared for the service of your sanctuary, and that our rest here upon earth may be a preparation for the eternal rest promised to your people in heaven; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (BCP 1979, page 99)
Today (October 13) is a feria. As it is also a Saturday this year (2012) we offer this Collect for Saturdays from the service of Daily Morning Prayer.
