Gracious God, by whose inspiration your apostle Peter acknowledged Jesus as the Christ and Son of God; grant that your Church, firmly founded on this faith, may with one heart and mind witness to its Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and ever. Amen.
