A Prayer for Our Bishops
Jesus, Good Shepherd, You sent us the Holy Spirit to guide Your Church and lead her faithful to You
through the ministry of the successors of Your Apostles, the bishops. Through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, grant to Your bishops wisdom in leading, faithfulness in
teaching, and holiness in guarding Your sacred Mysteries.
As they cry out with all the faithful, "Our Father!", may Your bishops be ever more closely identified
with You in Your divine Sonship and offer their own lives with You, the one saving Victim.
Renew in Your bishops deeper faith, greater trust in You, childlike reliance on our Mother Mary, and
unwavering fidelity to the Holy Father.
Holy Mary, intercede for Your bishops.
