That's a wonderful prayer, K! That's something that ALL Christians should pray, including the prostrations.

Did you get a chance to finish reading the address? What do you think?

“Did you get a chance to finish reading the address? What do you think?”

Indeed I have. Isn’t it wonderful, even a miracle, that God has given the West such a great teacher as this pope at this time. We are seeing a great Father of The Church here, the first in the West in many centuries. Because of his role as First among Equals among the Patriarchs of The Church, when he speaks from Rome, the whole world, but most especially the Western Christian world so degraded by a soul destroying materialism and modernism, should listen.

Do you see what he is doing here with these talks on the Fathers? He is doing nothing less than catechising the West anew, using his position to start to repair the damage done by decades of drift and apostasy by going back to the Patristic roots of The Faith, demonstrating what The Church always and everywhere has believed.
