PRAYER FOR POPE FRANCIS AS HE VISITS THE USA
Heavenly Father, who bestows on your children gifts of
love and truth, we thank you for giving us Pope Francis to be our holy
shepherd. As he visits us in the United
States, keep him safe in his travels. Grant him wisdom, understanding and
prudence in his interactions with other world leaders, and help us to truly
hear his messages with open minds and hearts. Before we judge, let us pray that we will discern
Your will in his words and actions, and give us the grace and courage so we can
embrace the challenges that are presented to us. As our heavenly Mother, the Virgin Mary, said
“YES” to Your call to her, strengthen us to say “YES” to your call to us, too. We ask all this through Jesus Christ, Your
Son. Amen.
