I would like to offer a special prayer for our Holy Father Benedict XVI's visit with the Patriarche of Constantinople.

O Holy Slavonic Apostles, Cyril and Methodius; you led our forefathers, and us with them, from darkness of pagan error to the light of unity in the true Faith of Christ, and now you rejoice with Christ in Heaven. Sincerely, we rejoice in your glory, with which God has rewarded you untiring zeal, and we humbly thank Him for the great gift of Christianity which our heavenly Father has bestowed upon us through your efforts. Intercede with God for us who are unworth descendents of Adam, that he may strengthen the Church in the True Faith, which you preached to our forefathers. Amen.

And for his safety in Ankara, Ephesus, and elsewhere.

St. John Chrysostom, pray for him.

May the Lord God abundantly bless His Holiness Benedict, as he makes his pilgrimage to Constantinople. May the Lord God abundantly bless His All Holiness Bartholomew, as he celebrates the feast of the holy apostle Andrew. May God accomplish his purposes during their meetings.

May the Lord God grant to Pope Benedict, and Patriarch Bartholomew, peace health and happiness for many blessed years!

I pray that Pope Benedict and Patriarch Bartholomew will be protected from death, violence, and evil during this historical visit.

I pray that these Holy Hierarchs will be granted many years to guide the Faithful.

Sts. Peter and Andrew pray for them!

May the Archangel Michael protect our beloved Pope Benedict and Patriarch Bartholomew from all evil and danger, and may their meeting bear much fruit.

In Christ,

My prayers, as unworthy as they are for these men of God, join the Christian community's for the Lord to watch over them and protect them from harm. I pray that their faith be a beacon of hope in the dark times Christians now face in Turkey and around the world. I pray that hearts be converted to the way of peace. I pray that the Lord's will be done.

Glory to God that our prayers were heard and that this visit went without incident and that the Pontiff is safely home.

In IC XC,
Father Anthony+


Everyone baptized into Christ should pass progressively through all the stages of Christ's own life, for in baptism he receives the power so to progress, and through the commandments he can discover and learn how to accomplish such progression. - Saint Gregory of Sinai
