At all Ordinations

V. Our help is in the Name of the Lord; R. The maker of heaven and earth. V. The Lord be with you. R. And also with you.

Let us pray.

Everliving God, whose power is limitless, we place before you, with our praise and thanks, these tokens of your  servant’s ministry and dignity. Grant that N., who has been called to leadership in your Church, and bears these signs,  may faithfully serve you and share in the fullness of your  life-giving Spirit; through the high priest and good shepherd  of us all, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
