God of glory,
you nourish us with bread from heaven.
Fill us with your Holy Spirit
that through us the light of your glory

We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

whose Son, Jesus Christ, is now exalted as Lord of all,
and pours out his gifts upon the Church:
grant it that unity which only your Spirit can give,
keep us in the bond of peace,

who lives and reigns with you
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
