Please pray for the pope. He’s in critical condition.

Just when I rewatched Conclave and The Two Popes (both of which I highly recommend).
I pray for this Pope, that his bodily suffering might reduced. He's better than his predecessors. I hope the next conclave continues its progressive trend. |
His doctors say this isn't life threatening.

That was yesterday, his condition worsened today. |
The very fact that the Vatican is keeping his condition updated almost shouts this is life threatening and letting the public know so that his death is not a shock
|
Yes. They've said as much. |
He’s 88. |
Sending prayers to The Pope. |
I've been praying for the Pope.
Here is a prayer from the USCCB: O God, shepherd and ruler of all the faithful, look favorably on your servant Francis, whom you have set at the head of your Church as her shepherd; Grant, we pray, that by word and example he may be of service to those over whom he presides so that, together with the flock entrusted to his care, he may come to everlasting life. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. |
Thank you. |
I am so sad about this. I did not grow up Catholic but found my home in the Catholic Church shortly after graduating from college - and I remember when he was elected pope when I was a junior.
Holy Mary, mother of god, pray for us sinners. |
Do internet prayers work? |
Prayer is prayer. It doesn’t matter where it is taking place. |
Does prayer work and does the Pope need prayers? |
Isn’t he already god or something. |
