THE CONCLAVE IN WHICH

THE NEW POPE WILL BE ELECTED,

WILL BE MONDAY, APRIL 18th, 2005

Every day of this Conclave, we invite you to pray that the Cardinals will elect as the next Pope, the person who will be able to deal with the present situation in the world.

A POPE

who will show us the infinite love of God, who is Father of all of us;

who will invite us to look into the future without evoking complaints, prejudices of fears from our past;

who will open wide the "windows" of the Universal Church, so that the Presence of Holy Spirit, who ever replenishes this world, will be able to enter there in and renew it in holiness;

who will allow hope, faith and charity to evermore grow in our hearts;

who will be a permanent call on all our consciences, through both his word and his example.

 

LET US ALWAYS KEEP THESE PRAYERS IN OUR HEARTS, AS AN UN-ENDING AND EVER-JOYFUL SONG OF PRAISE!
