Good Friday

The Great Intercessions at the Mass of the Presanctified. Among other prayers:

Let us pray also for our most holy Father Pope John Paul that our Lord and God, who chose him to the order of the Episcopate, may keep him in health and safety for His holy Church to govern the holy people of God.

Let us pray. Let us kneel. Arise.

Almighty and everlasting God, by whose judgment all things are established, mercifully regard our prayers, and in Thy goodness preserve the Bishop chosen for us: that the Christian people who are ruled by Thine authority, may under so great a Pontiff, be increased in the merits of their faith. Through our Lord... R. Amen.
