Let us pray for the Pope

Fr. John Zuhlsdorf reminds us of the words of Pope Benedict XVI during the homily at his inaugural Mass as Bishop of Rome:

My dear friends – at this moment I can only say: pray for me, that I may
learn to love the Lord more and more.

Pray for me, that I may learn to love his flock more and more – in other
words, you, the holy Church, each one of you and all of you together.

Pray for me, that I may not flee for fear of the wolves.

Let us pray for one another, that the Lord will carry us and that we will
learn to carry one another.

Yes, let us pray for the Pope.
