Prayers Needed

Two priests told me to pray to Bishop Portillo. Also, I saw a card for his ordination in a friend of mine's breviary. I ask that you join me in private prayer for my intentions and for God's perfect will in my life and yours, through the intercession of Bishop Alvaro del Portillo. 


If my prayers are answered, you all will be some of the first to know, of course.

Prayer for Bishop Alvaro del Portillo's intercession

Prayer for private devotion.

Opus Dei -
O God, merciful Father, you granted your servant Álvaro, Bishop, the grace of being an exemplary pastor in the service of the Church, and a most faithful son and successor of Saint Josemaría, the founder of Opus Dei. Grant that I too may respond faithfully to the demands of the Christian vocation, turning all the circumstances and events of my life into opportunities to love you and serve the kingdom of Jesus Christ. Deign to glorify your servant Álvaro, and through his intercession grant me the favor I request ... (here make your petition). Amen.

Our Father. Hail Mary. Glory be to the Father.

In conformity with the decrees of Pope Urban VIII, we declare that there is no intention of anticipating in any way the judgment of the Church, and that this prayer is not intended for public use.
