livest and reignest God forever and ever. Amen.

that which is scattered, and keepest that which is gathered
together; we beseech Thee, mercifully pour forth upon the

Shepherd of Thy Church, and may thus be enabled to serve
Thee worthily, Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

to the unity of Thy truth. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
