Almighty God, 
by your grace alone 
we are accepted and called to your service; 
strengthen us by your Holy Spirit and empower our calling; 
through Jesus Christ our Lord. 
Amen. 

E te Atua kaha rawa,
mā tōu aroha noa anake e whakaae i a mātou hei kaimahi māu;
mā tōu Wairua Tapu hoki mātou e whakakaha,
e whakamana i tāu i karanga i a mātou.
Ko Īhu Karaiti tō mātou Ariki.
