Please pray for humility in the Church, especially among the hierarchy as temptations of pride are certainly great for those in high places. Please also pray for humility for each one of us as we endeavor to evangelize each in our own state in life: that we may say Truth while always remaining in humble recognition that any understanding we have comes as a grace from God. Humility is a requirement, not an option. God bless.

Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen

Prayer for Humility

Lord Jesus Christ, I pray that you may fortify me with the grace of your Holy Spirit, and give your peace to my soul, that I may be free from all needless anxiety and worry. Help me to desire always that which is pleasing and acceptable to you, so that your will may be my will.

Grant that I may be free from unholy desires, and that , for your love, I may remain obscure and unknown in this world, to be known only to you.

Do not permit me to attribute to myself the good that you perform in me and through me, but rather, referring all honor to you, may I admit only to my infirmities, so that renouncing sincerely all vainglory which comes from the world, I may aspire to that true and lasting glory that comes from you. Amen

What a wonderful thought and wonderful prayer intention. I really don’t think we can ask for much more than this. I think we were all humble we would reduce Pride, which seems to be the door to every other sin. I will join in your prayer that God produce humility in each of us, even if that means suffering here on earth.
 
Lord, please grant every one of us in your Church the grace of humility. Protect us form being prideful with others, and help us to pray humbly for all our needs. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.

Thank you all so much for your beautiful prayers. With you I also pray.

Lord Jesus, I ask that you take my prayer request into Your Most Sacred Heart and wash it with Your Precious Blood that it might then be an acceptable request: Heavenly Father in the name of your dearly Beloved Son and in union with the Holy Spirit, I earnestly implore You for the grace of humility in my daily life and especially in all spiritual and evangelical endeavors. I earnestly implore you for humility for all in your Beloved Church, especially for all of Your bishops and those who have consecrated their life to You and Your work here on earth. I pray this that in the pursuit of bringing your Church to others we always remember that You give faith as a gift provided in Your own time, and that we must simply and patiently do our part, not succumbing to temptations of self-righteousness and pride. This I pray in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
 
O Lord, through humility, you taught us the path to perfection. Grant, we beseech you, that through this same gift, we may humble ourselves so that we may share in your divinity. Amen.
 
Heavenly Father, through your beloved Son, Jesus, and His Most Precious Blood in union with the Holy Spirit, may all of your servants from all states in life approach their work and their life in the spirit of humility, ever acknowledging You as the Author of their lives and the Provider of their needs. We ask this blessing that we may not be led astray by our own willfulness and self-righteousness. We thank you for all You have given us in this regard. Amen.
 
for Humility…

Our Father Who art in Heaven, Holy be Your Name. Your Kingdom Come, Your Will be Done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us This Day our daily bread and forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil, Amen.

Hail Mary Full of Grace, The Lord is With You. Blessed are You among women, and Blessed is The Fruit of Your Womb, Jesus. Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen.

Glory be to The Father, to The Son and to The Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be world without end, Amen.

Let us pray for humility, especially in these trying times, and especially for the hierarchy of our Catholic Church, as persons in high places have even more temptation to pride. Heavenly Father, in the name of Your Beloved Son and through His Most Precious Blood, in union with the Holy Spirit, I earnestly pray for the gift of humility in all I do but especially when in communication with those with whom I disagree or with those who question my Catholic faith, that I may simply express my thoughts not veering from truth while also allowing them to agree or disagree and to do their own thinking. Amen.
