A Prayer in Memory of Pope Francis

Merciful and Eternal God,
Lord of life and conqueror of death,
With hearts full of sorrow, reverence, and hope,
we come before You to entrust to Your loving hands
Your faithful servant, Pope Francis.

You called him from among Your people
to bear the yoke of Christ and lead the flock of Your Church.
With the spirit of St. Peter and the humility of St. Francis,
he answered Your call with courage, simplicity, and profound love.

Lord, we give You thanks for the gift of his life—
for his tireless devotion to the Gospel,
his voice raised for the poor and marginalized,
his embrace of mercy, his pursuit of justice,
and his quiet witness to the joy of the Gospel in word and deed.

In an age often marked by division,
You gave us a shepherd of tenderness and unity,
a man who walked among the people,
who wept with those who mourned,
who rejoiced with the humble,
and who reminded the world that the Church is a field hospital,
not a fortress.

As he now returns to You, O Lord,
after a life poured out in service,
look not upon his human limitations,
but upon the love with which he led and the truth he sought to proclaim.
Receive him into the arms of Your infinite mercy.
Let him rest in the light of Your eternal glory,
where pain is no more, and joy knows no end.

Grant comfort and strength to the Church he leaves behind.
Guide the College of Cardinals as they discern a successor.
Inspire us, the faithful, to carry forward his legacy of peace,
dialogue, humility, and care for creation and the poor.

May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
May his memory be a blessing to generations to come.
And may we remain faithful to the Gospel he so boldly lived.

We ask this through Christ our Lord,
who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever.

Amen.

Ethan 5th Grade, Saint Nicholas of Tolentine
