PRAY FOR POPE LEO XIV WHO IS TO UNDERGO SURGERY TO REMOVE A LUNG TUMOR!

Please pray for Pope Leo who will undergo surgery this week to remove a tumor from his lung:

O God, who in your providential design willed that your Church be built upon blessed Peter, whom you set over the other Apostles, look with favor, we pray, on Leo XIV our Pope and grant that he, whom you have made Peter’s successor, may be for your people a visible source and foundation of unity in faith and of communion. Grant Pope Leo a safe surgery and a full recovery.

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.
