With the news this morning of Pope Francis being in the hospital, we invite all of our readers to pray for the Holy Father.
The Franciscan Missionaries of the Eternal Word — founded by EWTN’s foundress, Mother Angelica — wrote this prayer so we may all unite as one voice to lift up the Vicar of Christ in prayer today.
We thank you for the loving service of Pope Francis and the hope he has inspired in so many in your great mercy.
Have mercy on him in his illness now, we pray, and guide the medical staff in his care.
Grant him peace and healing. Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
