Day 139. What is the work of all Christians? (2025)

Today is day 139 and we are studying The Sacrament of Confirmation.

139. What is the work of all Christians?

All Christians are to bear witness to Christ in their lives; to care for the poor, strangers, widows, and orphans; and, according to their gifts, to serve Christ in the world and in the Church. (Zechariah 7:9–10; Psalms 1; 15; Micah 6:6–8; Colossians 3:1–17; James 1:27; 1 Peter 4:8–11)

We will conclude today with the Concluding Prayer after the Laying on of Hands on page 180 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
