A Prayer for Pope Leo

Heavenly Father, we lift our hearts to You today as a Catholic school community. We pray for Pope Leo, asking You to comfort, strengthen, and heal him as he battles cancer. Wrap him in Your peace and give him the courage to face each day.

We also hold close in our hearts all people who are sick or suffering within our families, our school, and around the world. May they feel Your healing presence and never feel alone.

Lord, we thank You for the gift of our doctors, nurses, and all caregivers. Thank you for their choosing to serve others, and for the gentle hands that tend to the sick. Guide them with Your wisdom and protect them as they do Your holy work on earth.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
