POPE FRANCIS IN CRITICAL CONDITION…PLEASE PRAY FOR THE HOLY FATHER…

BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS GIVEN...


 Pope Francis was in critical condition Saturday after he suffered a long asthmatic respiratory crisis that required high flows of oxygen, the Vatican said.

Prayer for a Happy Death

O God, great and omnipotent judge of the living and the dead, we are to appear before You after this short life to render an account of our works. Give us the grace to prepare for our last hour by a devout and holy life, and protect us against a sudden and unprovided death. Let us remember our frailty and mortality, that we may always live in the ways of Your commandments. Teach us to “watch and pray” (Luke 21, 36), that when Your summons comes for our departure from this world, we may go forth to meet You, experience a merciful judgment, and rejoice in everlasting happiness. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

My father who was a very good Catholic and he passed peaceably on a Sunday. That is my hope for Santita as well.

Father McDonald,

As a personal favor, please read this. For those of us who still bother to go to Church, this expresses our dismay at the USCCB and the Vatican on the immigration issue:
