We pray that Pope Leo XIV be strengthened in his ministry.

  We pray that Pope Leo XIV be strengthened in his ministry. May he continue building bridges that connect us to one another. May he be an example of faith, hope and love.

May he never lose sight of Christ who walks before us and among us — particularly in the most vulnerable, the forgotten and the outcast. Christ Jesus, bless Pope Leo XIV — and bless us, your holy people, as together we strive to be your Body in our wounded world. Amen. https://www.jesuits.org/stories/a-prayer-for-pope-leo-xiv/
