PRAYER FOR THE SEASON OF LENT:

Collect

Almighty and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou
hast made and dost forgive the sins of all those who are
penitent: Create and make in us new and contrite hearts, that
we, worthily lamenting our sins and acknowledging our
wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy,
perfect remission and forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our
Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
  Amen.

St. Philip-the-Apostle Anglican Church, Arlington, Texas is a Mission of the Episcopal (Anglican) Diocese of Fort Worth, which is a God-honoring, Biblically faithful Diocese in the Anglican Church of North America (ACNA) and in Communion with the Worldwide Anglican Church. Here at St. Philip’s Church, we worship God in the Anglican Tradition, proclaiming Christ Our Lord, using the Book of Common Prayer. Our Theology, Preaching, and Teaching are Biblically-sound and faithful to the Faith and the Gospel as received, preached, taught, and proclaimed for centuries and from generation to generation.

Our worship is vibrant and expressive, reflecting the African culture, from which most of our members originally came and have some connection. We usually have some refreshment, reception, and socialization following our services. There is always something interesting happening at St. Philip’s! This is a warm and lively congregation. Please join us if you are an Anglican living in the Metroplex and are looking for such a congregation as ours.



We know that there are thousands of African Anglicans in the Metroplex who are presently not worshiping in an Anglican Church. If you are such a person, we specially invite you to come and join us. Bishop Iker and the Diocese of Fort Worth have put a lot of resources in establishing and maintaining St. Philip’s so that we and our children (the future generations) may not lose our Anglican heritage and tradition. May the Lord guide and bless you. Amen.


Our Prayer

Prayer for St. Philip-the Apostle Anglican Church
Heavenly Father, pour down your Holy Spirit upon St. Philip-the-Apostle Church,
and grant us brighter vision of your Glory, a richer experience of your power,
increased faithfulness to your work, and a renewed dedication to your service
so that through our witness your Holy name be glorified and your Kingdom advanced
through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, One God, now and forever. Amen
