A Prayer for the Pope

All-good and generous Lord,
watch over our Holy Father,
and in your benevolence,
keep him in your care.
As we go about our daily lives,
remind us to share our Catholic faith
with conviction and charity,
following the example of our Pope.
Give us each day
the depth of your love
to pray for our leader
with an undivided heart.
Keep us focused on the mission of your Church,
that Christ may bless all keepers of the faith,
especially our Holy Father
when he teaches, preaches,
and lives God’s love and mercy
for all to imitate.
Through Christ, our Lord,
Amen.

Pope Francis: In remembrance

As Catholics and faithful people around the world mourn the passing of Pope Francis, may we remember the loving manner with which he shepherded us all. Perhaps viewed as an unconventional choice back in 2013, he was recognized as a compassionate leader who never failed to point us to Jesus. The Living with Christ family joins the faithful around the globe in praying for our pontiff and for the guidance of the Holy Spirit as the Church moves forward.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord.
And let perpetual light shine upon him.
May his soul and all the souls of the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

  Weekly Prayer

O God, for forty days and nights
We journey through the desert to you, our heart’s desire.
Wandering and wondering, “Are we there yet?”
Not there, now here, patient in this place.
Be our
Angel of Life
Staff against the serpents
Rod that draws water from rock
Bread from heaven
Cloud of knowing-comfort
Guide of grace
Lamb of sacrifice
Promise of peace.
Lead us to the banks of blooming, where
Manna is living memory
Wine is danced song
Dawn destroys death and
Your Word lights our homes.
Amen.

~  David L. Coppola
