A TIME OF GRACE AND RENEWAL

We welcome with great joy our new Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV, formerly Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, OSA. As he begins this sacred mission, we pray that his leadership may bring renewal, peace, and strength to the People of God.

THANKSGIVING PRAYER AFTER THE ELECTION OF THE NEW POPE

Lord Jesus Christ, Good Shepherd and High Priest, we praise you and offer you our sincere gratitude for calling Pope Leo XIV. to serve as the shepherd of the universal church.

May he lead us as a loving shepherd who cares for his flock and seeks out the lost sheep.

May he be for us a gentle and listening father, a faithful teacher and a steward of your sacred mysteries.

Grant him health, strength, and wisdom. Strengthen the bonds of unity among us so that we may serve you as one body. Purify us and sustain us in charity for your love for us never fails.

Grant that we may boldly answer your call to mission You who live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever. Amen.

EVERYDAY, WE EXPERIENCE TEMPTATION—
GUARD YOURSELF WITH PRAYER.

We are still within the month of the Holy Rosary, and it is high time to talk how Rosary could help us fight temptations of the devil.

One of the most common strategies of Satan to tempt us is to take advantage of our human weaknesses. And that's how he tempted Jesus in today's Gospel.

Jesus was tempted as we are. In dealing with the time of the temptation there's one common thing a Christian could do—pray!

We all experience temptation everyday, that's why it's also a must for us to pray the Holy Rosary everyday. Taking the time to pray the Rosary is the first step to becoming friends with Jesus and finding inner peace and serenity in times of temptation.

If you pray and meditate about the life of Jesus everyday, you will become close to Him and the peace only He can give, will permeate your life even amid the war within your soul. Because the rosary is the weapon of choice given to the Church to defeat the evil; to bring peace, heighten personal virtue, and demonstrate a true devotion to Jesus—the central focus of the Holy Rosary.
