Pray for our beloved Pope and bishops, that they may always cling to faithfully to Christ.
Here is a Collect from the Roman Missal, 3rd Typical Edition:
(For a Council or Synod)
O Lord, ruler and guardian of your Church,
pour out, we pray, upon your servants
a spirit of truth, understanding and peace,
that they may strive with all their heart
to know what is pleasing to you
and then pursue it with all their strength.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
Or:
O God, who care for your peoples with gentleness
and rule them in love,
endow with a spirit of wisdom
those to whom you have handed on authority to govern,
that your people may be led to know the truth more fully
and to grow in holiness according to your will.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever.
And from the 1962 Missale Romanum:
(For All the Orders in the Church)
Latin: Omnipotens sempiterne Deus,
cuius Spiritu tatum corpus Ecclesiae sanctificatu et regitur:
exaudi nos pro universis ordinibus supplicantes;
ut, gratiae tuae munere, ab omnibus tibi gradibus fideliter serviatur.
Per Dominum... in unitate eiusdem.
Literal Rendering:
Almighty ever-living God,
whose Spirit sanctifies and guides the whole body of the Church:
hear our supplications for all the ordained;
so that by the gift of your grace,
they may serve you faithfully in each of their position.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you
in the unity of the same Holy Spirit,
one God, forever and ever.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: PRAY THE HOLY ROSARY!
