Prayer For The Union Of The Church Of The Genuine Orthodox Christians Of Greece (G.O.C)
O All-good Master, watch over Thy flock and all the children of the church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece, that we may effect the union of our Church in a manner well-pleasing to Thee. Grant us the spirit of wisdom and understanding; instill in our hearts the spirit of the fear of God, the spirit of piety, and zeal for the glory of Thy holy name.
​
Guard us against all temptations, stumbling-blocks, and divisions, that, bound together, one to another, by the bond of love for Thee, our Master, we may without hindrance perform the work of our ministry for the edification of the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece as the one Body of Christ. We pray Thee, O greatly Merciful One: hearken and have mercy!
​
O Good Shepherd, Who hast promised to gather Thy scattered sheep into a single flock, put down scandal and division within the Church; all who have stayed from Thy path, do Thou lead to repentance and a knowledge of the Truth, and return them to Thy fold; and confirm us all in the Orthodox Faith and the keeping of Thy commandments. We pray Thee: hearken and have mercy!
​
Amen.

"Let not one think, my fellow Christians, that only priests and monks need to pray without
ceasing and not laymen... No, no! every Christian without exception ought to dwell
always in prayer."
