Almighty God,
on this day you opened the way of eternal life
to every race and nation
by the promised gift of your Holy Spirit:

Shed abroad this gift throughout the world
by the preaching of the Gospel,

that it may reach to the ends of the earth;

through Jesus Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God,
for ever and ever.

Amen.

or this

O God,
who on this day taught the hearts of your faithful people
by sending to them the light of your Holy Spirit:

Grant us by the same Spirit to have a right judgment in all things,
and evermore to rejoice in his holy comfort;

through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who lives and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God,
for ever and ever.

Amen.
