*A Prayer of St. Chrysostom* 

Almighty God, you have given us grace at this time with one
accord to make our common supplication to you; and you
have promised through your well-beloved Son that when two
or three are gathered together in his Name you will be in the 
midst of them:  Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions
as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge of
your truth, and in the age to come life everlasting.  Amen. 

*Then may be said* 

Let us bless the Lord.
Thanks be to God. 

*From Easter Day through the Day of Pentecost "Alleluia, alleluia" may
be added to the preceding versicle and response.* 

*The Officiant may then conclude with one of the following* 

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and
the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us all evermore.
Amen.  2 Corinthians 13:14 

May the God of hope fill us with all joy and peace in
believing through the power of the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
Romans 15:13 

Glory to God whose power, working in us, can do infinitely
more than we can ask or imagine:  Glory to him from
generation to generation in the Church, and in Christ Jesus
for ever and ever.  Amen.  Ephesians 3:20,21
