Reflection for Today
Today we pray for the unity of the faithful after Pope Francis's death. The death of a Pope can be a time of uncertainty and division in the Church.
We pray that all Catholics will remain united in faith and love during this transition. May we focus on what unites us rather than what divides us.
Unity in the Church is essential for our mission to spread the Gospel. We pray that the Holy Spirit will help us to remain one in Christ.
As we continue this novena, let us pray for unity among all believers. Let us ask God to help us to be one as He and the Father are one.
Remember that unity is not uniformity, but a diversity of gifts working together for the common good of the Church and the glory of God.
