Prayer for Pope Francis



Today is the anniversary of the election of Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio to the Papacy.  He took the name Francis and asked all of us to pray for him after Benedict XVI retired.  Let us pray:

Heavenly Father, we ask you to bestow your grace and blessings upon Pope Francis whom you entrusted with the care of your Son's Catholic Church as His Vicar on Earth.  Give Francis the graces needed to do his Petrine ministry which is no easy task.  Give him the wisdom and knowledge to tackle today's errors and irrational ways of thinking.  Give him the strength to continue despite the stresses that will try to bring him down.

He has just completed one year on the journey as Pope and has done much in your name by making humility and poverty relevant again within the Church, reaching out to atheists, gays and others who are in defiance of you due to ignorance; as well as calling for renewal and Christian unity.  Continue to give him the grace that will allow him to bring more to the fold. To reach out to those far from you as he casts his net into the deep like St. Peter did as a fisherman.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.  Amen


*Pray 3 Hail Mary's asking for Our Lady of Lujan to pray for her Argentinian son.
