Loving and merciful God, we ask You to watch over Pope Leo as he recovers from surgery and faces the challenges of cancer. Bring healing to his body, comfort to his heart, and peace to his mind during this difficult time. Grant him strength and courage for the journey ahead, and surround him with the love and care of those who walk beside him. When he feels weary or uncertain, remind him that he is never alone, for You are always with him. May the prayers of the faithful bring him encouragement, hope, and renewed faith each day. Through the intercession of Mary, our Blessed Mother, may Pope Leo find comfort in her loving care and trust in God’s plan. Help us, too, to be people of compassion and hope, offering our prayers and support to all who are suffering. May Your healing presence bring Pope Leo peace, strengthen his spirit, and fill his heart with the light of Your everlasting love. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen
