Almighty God,

You have gathered us together,
In one place to call on you in common together.

You have promised that when two or three gather
in your name you will be in our midst.

Fulfil our desires and prayers,
As is best for us,
That we may know your truth in this world,
And in the age of life to come.

Amen.

– St John Chrysostom 347-407AD.
