Prayer To The Sorrowful Mother For The Church And The Pontiff

O Most Holy Virgin, Mother of Sorrows, your heart was deeply wounded by the sword of grief during the passion of your beloved Son. Yet, in His glorious resurrection, you were filled with everlasting joy at His victory! Please intercede for us who seek your aid, that we may share in the trials faced by the holy Church and the pains of our Supreme Pontiff, so that we might be worthy to rejoice alongside them in the comforts for which we beseech, in the love and peace of Christ our Lord.
