 For Reception

N., we recognize you as a member of the one holy catholic and apostolic Church, and we receive you into the fellowship  of this Communion. God, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, bless, preserve, and keep you. Amen.

For Reaffirmation

N., may the Holy Spirit, who has begun a good work in you, direct and uphold you in the service of Christ and his  kingdom. Amen.

Almighty and everliving God, let your fatherly hand ever be over these your servants; let your Holy Spirit ever be with  them; and so lead them in the knowledge and obedience of  your Word, that they may serve you in this life, and dwell  with you in the life to come; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
