Thanks to Esther for posting this prayer. Please pray for the safety of the pope and for all Christians, especially Catholics, in areas with large Muslim populations.
Lord Jesus Christ, You willed to build Your Church on Peter the Rock and the Popes who have succeeded him through the ages.
Pour forth Your grace on our Holy Father Benedict XVI that he may be a living sign and an indefatigable promoter of the unity of the Church.
Help him to proclaim Your message to all people and to listen to the message that comes to him from the consensus of all its members and from the world that You made.
Make him serve others after Your example and in accord with his traditional title:"Servant of the servants of God."Unite us closely to him and make us docile to his teachings.
And, Lord, please protect our Holy Father in this time of danger.
Amen.
