I just think there should be an official prayer thread for Rick Santorum, and his Presidential campaign. I don’t want to politicize the prayer forum in any way, and get a bunch of threads all praying against other candidates.
I think that without a doubt Catholics have just as much, if not more reason to pray for Rick Santorum than they did for John F. Kennedy. And, in those days I’ve heard many Catholic families had 3 pictures on their wall: one of the Pope, one of Mary, and one of JFK.
Anyways, Rick Santorum is a Knight of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, and his wife is a Dame. I believe he goes to daily Latin Mass when he’s in Washington D.C. So, there’s no doubt in my mind that Rick Santorum is fully Catholic both in his personal life, and in his public positions/ policies. So… in the spirit of “he is one of us”, I think he deserves our prayers and full support as Catholics.
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit I pray:
Father God I pray that you would comfort Rick Santorum and his family while he’s on the campaign trail. I pray that he would speak the words of the Holy Spirit. Please open doors for him in his campaign, and open the hearts of every person he runs across.
I pray that he would receive enough financial support from conservatives, Catholics, and all Americans to stay in the race to the convention, and to win the Republican nomination.
I pray that this nation would once again be blessed to have a Catholic as its President.
I pray that many Catholics who disagree with the Church would question their views because of the positions of Rick Santorum. Holy Spirit I pray that you would give Rick Santorum the words to defend Catholic social teaching in the most gracious way that would sway the hearts and minds of the most Americans to accept the views of the Church.
I pray for his protection and his health. And for the health of his daughter Bella. I pray that she would live for many years to come.
I pray all these things in your Holy Name. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
