From Pope Francis:
In these trying days, while humanity trembles due to the threat of the pandemic, I would like to propose to all Christians that together we lift our voices towards Heaven. I invite all the Heads of the Churches and the leaders of every Christian community, together with all Christian of the various confessions, to invoke the Almighty, the omnipotent God, to recite at the same time the prayer that Jesus, our Lord, taught us. I, therefore, invite everyone to do this several times a day, but all together, to recite the Our Father this coming Wednesday, 25 March, at noon, all together. On that day on which many Christians recall the annunciation to the Virgin Mary of the Incarnation of the Word, may the Lord listen to the united prayer of all of His disciples who are preparing themselves to celebrate the victory of the Risen Christ.
With this same intention, this coming Friday, 27 March, at 6:00pm, I will preside over a moment of prayer on the sagrata of Saint Peter’s Basilica, before the empty square. I invite everyone to participate spiritually through the means of communication. We will listen to the Word of God, we will lift up our supplication, we will adore the Blessed Sacrament, with which at the end, I will give the Urbi et Orbi blessing, to which will be connected the possibility of receiving the plenary indulgence.
PopeWatch will pray the Our Father on Wednesday, 6:00 AM CST being the same hour as noon in Rome.
He didn’t write that. I wonder if he’ll show for it.
Is this a joke? /s I’m finding it hard to believe that these words and intentions are from Frankie. Sorry, not sorry.
NO JOKE! https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/pope-francis-as-humanity-trembles-from-pandemic-let-us-unite-in-prayer-40234
If it’s the Feast of the Annunciation, shouldn’t he just pray the Angelus?
