Happy Labor Day everyone. I hope you have some extra “sabbath” time today. If you are off today, enjoy and also take a moment to give thanks. Here is the Collect for Labor Day from the BCP:

 

Almighty God, you have so linked our lives one with another that all we do affects, for good or ill, all other lives: So guide us in the work we do, that we may do it not for self alone, but for the common good; and, as we seek a proper return for our own labor, make us mindful of the rightful aspirations of other workers, and arouse our concern for those who are out of work; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
