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 each one of us might find consolation in a personal relationship with Jesus, and from his Heart, learn to have compassion on the world.

Morning Prayer
I thank you Lord, for your past blessings.
Today I offer myself – whatever I do, say, or think – to your loving care.
Continue to bless me, Lord and all I meet this day; especially those who
are ill and those who most need prayer.
This I ask with the prayer of Mary and through Christ our Lord. Amen

Evening Prayer
Now, Master, you let your servant go in peace.
You have fulfilled your promise.
My own eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared
in the sight of all peoples.
A light to bring the Gentiles from darkness; the glory of your people Israel.
Save us, Lord, while we are awake; protect us while we sleep; that we may keep
watch with Christ and rest with him in peace.
