The collect for today, Easter Even, or Holy Saturday, from the 1662 Book of Common Prayer:
Grant, O Lord, that as we are baptized into the death of thy blessed Son our Saviour Jesus Christ, so by continual mortifying our corrupt affections we may be buried with him; and that through the grave, and the gate of death, we may pass to our joyful resurrection; for his merits, who died, and was buried, and rose again for us, thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Epistle: 1 St Peter 3:17-22
The Gospel: St Matthew 27:57-66
