Let us entrust to Saint Andrew, the apostle regarded as the founder of the Church of Constantinople, the challenges facing the unity of the Church
Lord, you have given us Saint Andrew, brother of Saint Peter, as the patron saint of the Greek Church. Grant that we may feel this fraternal closeness in our relationships with one another, so that we may promptly profess with one voice the one faith in the one Lord, God and Father, which we have received through a single baptism.
Open our hearts to the spiritual riches of this Church, which so beautifully honors the memory of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, whenever a blessing from Christ is recalled.
May we, through her intercession and by the virtues of her universal motherhood, overcome our divisions and all together experience the joy of living as brothers and sisters in Christ, to the praise of Your glory and in service to our fellow human beings.
Through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
