Prayers for Pope Francis

Feb 24, 2025

The Focolare Movement draws together to pray for the health of the Holy Father

The President of the Focolare Movement, Margaret Karram, sent a message to Pope Francis assuring him of her affectionate closeness and fervent prayer.

She wrote, “May Mary envelop you with her maternal love and all the tenderness that you have always recommended that we should have for the good of every person next to us and every nation.”

She added, “I send you the embrace of everyone in the worldwide Focolare Movement who is praying and constantly offering up everything for you. We are infinitely grateful for your life completely given to God and given for the good of humanity.”
