The Pope's Coming-


From: Reverend Monsignor Walter R. Rossi
Rector, National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, Washington, DC

Prayer Intentions for Pope's Visit

In just two weeks the National Shrine will be hosting the Holy Father during his historic first visit to the United States.

Pope Benedict XVI will tour the Great Upper Church and celebrate a private Evening Prayer with the United States’ Bishops on Wednesday, April 16, 2008.

While this event is closed to the public, I would like to offer you, as a special friend to the National Shrine, a way to participate spiritually by sending me your prayer intentions. These intentions will be remembered at the Solemn Vespers by the Holy Father.

In order for me to include your prayer intentions, I need to receive them by no later than next Friday, April 11, 2008.

I hope to include as many people in this way as possible, so if you know of others that would also appreciate having their intentions remembered during the Holy Father’s Evening Prayer service, please forward this email to them so that they may also participate. Please keep the priests and staff of the Shrine in your prayers as we finish our preparations for this momentous occasion.
