Prayer by Metropolitan Agafangel
A
General Sharing: (in Russian & a human-English translation): Prayer
by Metropolitan Agafangel: "Prayer for an increase of love and for an
end of conflicts in the Church",
По предложению р.Б. Елизаветы молиться о умирении нашей Церкви, предлагаю сию краткую молитву: Господи,
Боже наш! Единый в Троице славимый и поклоняемый! Союзом любви нас
связавый и заповедавый нам едино быти! Положи конец раздорам и
нестроениям, еже меж верных чад Твоих враг насади! Ненависть и злобу в
любовь преложи и умножи ю сердцах наших. Да возстанем едино на делание
Твое и верно послужим Тебе! Молитвами Пречистыя Твоея Матери и всех
святых Твоих. Аминь.
Human English translation:(From ROCA Australian and New Zealand Diocese):
Prayer for increase of love and end of conflicts in the Church Metropolitan Agafangel urges us all to pray for an increase of love
O
Lord, our God, Thou Who art glorified and worshiped as One in Trinity!
Thou Who hast bound us in the unity of love and commanded us to be one;
put an end to the strife and discord that the enemy has sown among Thy
faithful children! Transform hatred and anger into love, and multiply
this love in our hearts, that we may arise together to do Thy work and
faithfully serve Thee, through the prayers of Thy most pure Mother and
of all Thy saints. Amen.
PRAYER FOR THE SALVATION OF RUSSIA O Lord Jesus Christ our God:
Accept from us, Thine unworthy servants, this fervent supplication,
and, having forgiven us all our sins, remember all our enemies that hate
and wrong us, and render not unto them according to their deeds, but
according to Thy great mercy convert them: the unbelieving to true faith
and piety, and the believing that they may turn away from evil and do
good. By Thine all-powerful might, mercifully deliver all of us and Thy holy Church from every evil circumstance.
Free our Russian Land from the cruel godless ones and their power and
raise the holy Orthodox Russia; hearken unto the painful cry of Thy
faithful servants who cry unto Thee day and night in tribulation and
sorrow, O our most merciful God, and lead their life out of corruption.
Grant peace and tranquility, love and steadfastness, and swift
reconciliation to Thy people, whom Thou hast redeemed by Thy precious
Blood. But unto them that have departed from Thee and seek Thee not,
be Thou manifest, that not one of them perish, but that all of them be
saved and come to the knowledge of Thy truth, that all in harmonious
oneness of mind and unceasing love may glorify Thy most holy name, O
patient-hearted Lord Who art quick to forgive, unto the ages of ages.
Amen.
