Prayer to St James

St James the Greater, apostle and brother of St John, is honoured on July 25 and at his shrine in Santiago de Compostela.

Collect of St James

Grant, O merciful God, that, as thine holy Apostle Saint James, leaving his father and all that he had, without delay was obedient unto the calling of thy Son Jesus Christ, and followed him; so we, forsaking all worldly and carnal affections, may be evermore ready to follow thy holy commandments; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

From the Book of Common Prayer (1928)
