Lord, you have taught us

send your Holy Spirit

Almighty and eternal God,
who, for the firmer foundation of our faith,
allowed your holy apostle Thomas

grant to us, who have not seen, that we also may believe
and so confess Christ as our Lord and our God;
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
