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 the proper use of wealth. Let us pray for the proper use of wealth, that, not succumbing to the temptation of selfishness, it may always be put at the service of the common good and the solidarity of those who have less.

Morning Prayer

Lord, I thank you for providing for all my needs.  I only have to ask.  Help me to be generous with all that I have and to remember to welcome the stranger. 

“I was hungry, and you gave me food; I was thirsty, and you gave me drink; I was a stranger, and you welcomed me.”

Evening Prayer

Dear Lord, give me a restful sleep.  Calm my heart, my mind, my body, my soul.  Thank you for showing me the way you wanted me to go today and for granting me the wisdom to know your will for me tomorrow.
