NEW prayer thread for Pope John Paul II, now back in hospital.

[DemBones DemBones]

May the Lord watch over him.

Let's start a new prayer thread here. . .


Our Father who art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy name
On Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who
Trespass against us.

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
Pray for us sinners
Now and at the hour of our deaths.

Amen.

1. OK, Vatican correspondent at CNN said John Paul II

seemed quite well today, genuflecting with vigor, speaking for about thirty minutes, etc. He was surprised at how well His Holiness seemed to be recuperating, surprised by the relapse. I'm praying it's no big deal. . .

Jesus, Mary, and good St. Joseph be with our Holy Father in his illness. Amen.

[Padraig18]

2. A prayer for healing

Watch, O Lord, with those who wake, or watch, or weep tonight, and give your angels charge over those who sleep.

Tend your sick ones, O Lord Christ.
Rest your weary ones.
Bless your dying ones.
Soothe your suffering ones.
Pity your afflicted ones.
Shield your joyous ones.
And for all your love's sake.

Amen.

---Saint Augustine
