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.

We pray that this Jubilee Year may strengthen our faith, helping us to recognise the Risen Christ in our daily lives, and that it may transform us into pilgrims of Christian hope.

Morning Prayer

As the late morning dawns in this winter month, I pray:
May I live this day in your light and spread the light that enlightens all those I meet. I pray especially for the Pope’s December intention: that this Jubilee Year strengthen our faith, helping us to recognise the
Risen Christ in our daily lives, and that it may transform us into pilgrims of Christian hope.

Evening Prayer

I pray this night for all I met this day as this day closes I thank you, Lord for what was good, and for your help in all that was difficult.
I also pray for family and friends who need help, prayer, and support. May tomorrow bring to all I meet signs of your love and care, and may I support and help all I meet. I make this prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.
