Pope makes special request for
prayers for the sick
Pope Francis releases a special video message, in which he
asks for prayers for the sick and the suffering, while thanking all those who
pray for those affected.
By Vatican News
Pope Francis is making a special call for prayers for all
the sick and suffering, in the context of the global Covid-19 pandemic.
The call comes in a video-message published by “The Pope Video”, an initiative of the “Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network”.
In his message, the Holy Father invokes the Blessed Virgin
Mary with the ancient prayer Sub tuum praesidium:
“We fly to thy protection, O Holy Mother of God. Despise
not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O
glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.”
Pope Francis also takes the opportunity in his message to
thank all Christians, and all men and women of good will – whichever religious
tradition they belong to, who are praying in unison in this moment.
Each month, Pope Francis releases a video-message with his
specific prayer intentions for that month. The invitation to pray together for
the sick and suffering marks a special addition to his regular intentions.
The invitation to prayer can be followed under the
hashtag #PrayForTheWorld.
To pray with Pope Francis you can access his official prayer profile on
the Click To Pray platform
(website, app and social networks).
