Almighty and everlasting God, who in the Paschal mystery established
the new covenant of reconciliation: Grant that all who have been
reborn into the fellowship of Christ's Body may show forth in their lives
what they profess by their faith; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who
lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and
ever. Amen.
(BCP - Collects - Second Sunday of Easter)
