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.

For evangelisation in the city. Let us pray that in large cities often marked by anonymity and loneliness, we find new ways to proclaim the Gospel, discovering creative paths to build community. 

Morning Prayer

Lord, You are with me as I wake this morning, wherever I may be in the world. Thank you for the comfort of knowing that I am never truly alone, even in moments when I feel lonely. Guide me throughout this day and give me opportunities to greet those I meet with kindness and love. Lead me toward those who are in need, and give me the wisdom, compassion, and willingness to help in whatever way I can. May Your love shine through me today. 

Night Prayer

As I sleep tonight, I pray that my mind, body and spirit will be restored and renewed, so I may rise with the light of a new morning refreshed and strengthened. Fill me with energy, hope and purpose, that I may help to create new pathways of connection, kindness, and community wherever I am called to live and serve.
