NOVENA FOR POPE BENEDICT XVI

Lord, source of eternal life and truth, give to your shepherd, Benedict, a spirit of courage and right judgment, a spirit of knowledge and love.

By governing with fidelity those entrusted to his care, may he, as successor to the Apostle Peter and Vicar of Christ, build your Church into a sacrament of unity, love and peace for all the world. Amen.

V/ Let us pray for Benedict, the Pope.
R/ May the Lord preserve him, give him a long life, make him blessed upon the earth, and not hand him over to the power of his enemies.
V/ May your hand be upon your holy servant.
R/ And upon your son, whom you have anointed.

Our Father…
Hail Mary…
Glory Be

[Salvation]

Ecumenical thread because I believe after the Pope's appearance in England that more and more people will be praying for him.

[Salvation]

Or just say the Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be for the intentions of the Holy Father,
or for his protection,
health/stamina
holiness
etc.

Thanks for doing this!

In Depth Analysis: The key to the Pope's success in Great Britain

[Salvation]

From an email:

Pope in Britain: Simply Smashing!

Dear -----------Had I not unaccountably forgotten to send this message yesterday, I would have already told you what an outstanding success the Pope's visit to Britain was—against all media expectations. Phil Lawler explains why in his latest In Depth Analysis: The key to the Pope's success in Great Britain.

Phil also makes an important point about the odds on the size of the crowds at papal events: Take the over.

Here are the rest of Benedict's addresses in the UK (excluding those listed in Friday's message):

• Address to Bishops of England, Scotland and Wales
• Address on the Eve of Newman's Beatification
• Homily at Beatification of Cardinal Newman
• Homily at Cathedral of the Most Precious Blood
• Address to Representatives of British Society
• Address at Ecumenical Celebration
• Address to Representatives of Other Religions
• Address to Those Dedicated to Safeguarding Children
• Address at St. Peter's Residence for the Elderly

[Salvation]

In On the News, Phil Lawler rightly interprets this as a personal invitation to enter the Church. You can keep up with all the Pope's homilies and addresses in our library:

• Comments en Route to Scotland
• Homily at Bellahouston Park
• Address at the Audience with Queen Elizabeth
• Address to Students at St. Mary's University College
• Address to Catholic Educators
