As the Church welcomes Pope Leo XIV, we lift him up in prayer, asking God to guide him with wisdom, strength, and love as he begins his sacred ministry. Below is a prayer for our new Holy Father:


Lord, source of eternal life and truth, give to your shepherd a spirit of courage and right judgment, a spirit of knowledge and love. By governing with fidelity those entrusted to his care, may he, as successor to the Apostle Peter and Vicar of Christ, build your Church into a sacrament of unity, love and peace for all the world. Amen.
