Prayers for Pope Benedict & Election
With just a few days left of Pope Benedict Papacy I came across a prayer for Him and also for the Election of the New Pope. Please join me in prayer over the next few days for Pope Benedict and then again in prayer for our new Pope.
Until tomorrow, God Bless, and may we all join together as Catholic in Prayer for Pope Benedict and for the future Pope of the Catholic Church.
Prayer for Pope Benedict
O God, true shepherd of all the faithful, look with kindness on your servant
Pope Benedict XVI, whom you set as head and shepherd of your Church.
We give you thanks for your grace at work in him as he has led us by word and example: in his teaching, in his prayer, and in his great love. Grant him your strength in frailty, comfort in sorrow, and serenity amid the trials of this world; and guide your Church, built on therock of Peter, with the power of your Spirit as we continue on the path that leads to you. Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
Prayer for the Election of New Pope
O God, eternal shepherd, who govern your flock with unfailing care, grant in your boundless fatherly love a pastor for your Church who will please you by his holiness and to us show watchful care. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
