Pray for the repose of the soul of Pope Francis

And for all those who will elect the next pope

During this the Octave of Easter let us seek from the Lord His Easterly gift of Divine Mercy for the soul of Pope Francis. And that all those who will elect His predecessor that they make their souls ready for such an important decision. That they seek the Mercy that comes from the side of Christ, relying not on themselves but the Holy Spirit.

” Therefore gird up your minds, be sober, set your hope fully upon the grace that is coming to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance,
but as he who called you is Holy, be Holy yourselves in all your conduct;
since it is written, “You shall be Holy, for I am Holy.”
1 Peter 1:13-16 RSV-CE
