Habemus Papam!
The Catholic Church has a new shepherd! Let us unite our prayers to support our new Holy Father in his apostolic mission.
V. Orémus pro Pontífice nostro Leone.
Let us pray for our Pontiff Leo.
R. Dóminus consérvet eum, et vivíficet eum, et beátum fáciat eum in terra, et non tradat eum in ánimam inimicórum éius.
May the Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth, and deliver him not to the will of his enemies.
Pater noster, Ave Maria.
Our Father, Hail Mary.
Oratio :
Deus, ómnium fidélium pastor et rector, famulum tuum Leonem, quem pastórem Ecclésiæ tuæ præésse voluísti, propítius réspice: da ei, quásumus, verbo et exemplo, quibus præest, profícere: ut ad vitam, una cum grege sibi crédito, pervéniat sempitérnam. Per Christum Dóminum nostrum. Amen.
O God, Shepherd and Ruler of all Thy faithful people, look mercifully upon Thy servant Leo, whom Thou hast chosen as shepherd to preside over Thy Church. Grant him, we beseech Thee, that by his word and example, he may edify those over whom he hath charge, so that together with the flock committed to him, may he attain everlasting life. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
