PRAYER FOR POPE BENEDICT XVI

Catholics will be given at Mass, this Sunday, a prayer card with a prayer for the Holy Father. I thought you might like to pray the prayer before then so here it is:

Almighty ever-living God,
who has given your faithful servant Benedict
grace to maintain his faith and hope in you
amid the labours of his apostolic ministry;
graciously bestow upon him, we pray,
the consolations of your Holy Spirit
and uphold him in serenity of life.
Through Christ our Lord.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us
St Peter, pray for us
St Paul, pray for us
St Benedict, pray for us
All holy men and women, pray for us


The Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham in the Southwest will be offering a Mass of thanksgiving for the petrine ministry of Pope Benedict XVI, on Thursday 28th February at 19:00. There will be a Holy Hour beforehand (from 18:00). This will take place at Holy Angels, Chelston, Torbay. You are most welcome to attend.
