O Lord and Master, who didst take thy disciples apart with thyself, that they might more perfectly learn thy holy will: We pray thee to draw near to us who at this time would draw near to thee. Deepen our fellowship one with another; make us sensitive to the guidance of thy Holy Spirit; and so direct our thoughts and words that thy purpose for our lives and for this parish may be advanced; for the honour and glory of thy name.
