An outstanding post here from "Past Elder" regarding November 11 - a day in which the commemorations for Church and state intersect in a providential way. Outstanding prose (as always) from the PE!Today's collect from the Treasury of Daily Prayer is the same collect Past Elder reproduces at the end of his fine post:
Lord God of hosts, who clothed Your servant Martin the soldier with the spirit of sacrifice, and set him as a bishop in Your Church to be a defender of the catholic faith: Give us grace to follow in his holy steps, that at the last we may be found clothed with righteousness in the dwellings of peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God now and forever.
