Let us pray:
God the Father of Mercies, from Whom all good comes, pour fourth Thy blessing upon Thy bishops, Whom Thou hast anointed by the Holy Ghost to be successors of the Apostles, that they may lead all souls in the way of Redemption with charity, fidelity and courage. May they always put the care of their flock before their own needs, without human respect or mundane fear, in order that we may follow them in the Truth that leads to eternal life, for we are a weak and sinful flock.
God the Father of Truth, we pray for our own shepherd, _________, that he may find in Thee all that he is lacking, growing each day in sanctity and fortitude, fortifying all of the souls within his flock by Sacrament, word, and deed.
God the Father Almighty, we beseech singular graces for Thy Sovereign Pontiff, ______________, the shepherd of shepherds, so that he may fulfill Thy Holy Will in grace and truth. Receive these, our humble petitions, through Christ the Good Shepherd, Thy Son, Who lives and reigns with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, for ever and ever. Amen.
