In its intention to prayer<\/a> For this month of April, Pope Leo XIV invites us to pray \u201cfor all priests, especially for those who are going through moments of crisis,\u201d so that they may experience the closeness of God and his people, and rediscover the hope and joy of their vocation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLord Jesus, Good Shepherd and companion on the way,\u201d the Pope asks, \u201ctoday we place in your hands all priests, especially those who are going through moments of crisis, when loneliness weighs heavily, doubts darken the heart and weariness seems stronger than hope.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe certainty of your unconditional love.\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You who know their struggles and wounds,\u201d the Holy Father continues, \u201crenew in them the certainty of your unconditional love. Make them feel that they are not officials or solitary heroes, but beloved children, humble and beloved disciples, and shepherds sustained by the prayers of their people\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pope also prays to our \u201cgood Father, that he may teach us as a community to care for our priests, to listen to them without judging, to thank them without demanding perfection, to share with them the baptismal mission of announcing the Kingdom with gestures and words, and to accompany them with closeness and sincere prayer.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHealthy friendships, fraternal support networks\u201d.\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

He also asks that we \u201cknow how to support those who so often support us\u201d, and prays to the Holy Spirit: \u201crevive in us those who support us\". our priests<\/a> the joy of the Gospel\u201d, \u201cmay they never lose confidence in you, nor the joy of serving your Church with a humble and generous heart\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pope also prays for such human issues as the granting of \u201chealthy friendships, networks of fraternal support\u201d, and \u201ca sense of humor when things don't go as expected\u201d, and the grace to always rediscover the beauty of their vocation\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
