Friends in Christ,
Just
a reminder that this Saturday February 22 at 8:00 a.m. is the monthly
Respect Life Latin Mass at Saint Ann parish (it is also the Feast of the
Chair of Saint Peter).
Following Mass, there will be prayers said at the Planned Parenthood abortion facility and a Holy Hour of Reparation offered in the church (for those unable to travel to the abortion facility).
Prayers for the Holy Father
The U.S. Bishops Conference is asking for prayers for Pope Francis during his illness and have published a prayer below, which can also be found at this link. [Prayers for Pope Francis]
~
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.
