“I would like to ask you all for a special prayer for Pope Emeritus Benedict, who in silence is supporting the Church. Remember him – he is very ill – asking the Lord to console him, and sustain him in this witness of love for the Church, until the end.”
Prayer for the health of Benedict XVI
Let us pray.
Almighty and Eternal God, You are the eternal health of those who believe in You.
Hear our prayers for your sick servant Benedict, for whom we implore the help of your tender mercy, through Christ our Lord. Amen.
