It's official - the Pope's coming to town...


The news is all over the place, of course, but nonetheless it's exciting to know His Holiness is going to come say hello. Find out more on the website that is dedicated to the visit, here.

Official Preparation Prayer

God of truth and love,
your Son, Jesus Christ, stands as the light
to all who seek you with a sincere heart.
As we strive with your grace
to be faithful in word and deed,
may we reflect the kindly light of Christ
and offer a witness of hope and peace to all.
We pray for Pope Benedict
and look forward with joy
to his forthcoming visit to our countries.
May he be a witness to the unity and hope
which is your will for all people.
We make our prayer through Christ our Lord.
Amen.
