Apostleship of Prayer

Each month the Pope entrusts a prayer intention to his Worldwide Prayer Network, the Apostleship of Prayer. These intentions, which express the Pope’s concern for humanity and the mission of the Church, are made available along with a morning and evening prayer. Let’s join many others around the world and pray with the Pope.

Let us pray that those who are struggling with suicidal thoughts might find the support, care, and love they need in their community, and be open to the beauty of life.

Morning Prayer

God, I thank you for this brand new day.  Give me the vision to see you in everyone I meet today. Please be with me and bless me, so that I may be a blessing to my own family, to all those I love, and to anyone I encounter throughout the day.

Evening Prayer

I remember all those I met today. I pray that all those who are struggling may find joy and strength in you. I place in your hands all the cares and worries that weigh me down, and I ask that you help me to remember that I am not alone, but you are lifting me when I feel I have no strength to take the next step. Thank you for walking with me today. Amen!
