  • Prayer for Our New Bishop
    Lord Jesus Christ, eternal High Priest and Good Shepherd, we thank you for the many blessings that you have poured on our Local Church of Metuchen. We thank you for James, our 5th Bishop, and for his many gifts in shepherding your people. Hear our prayer for the selection of a new Bishop for your Local Church of Metuchen. We pray for Leo, our Pope, that he is given wisdom in discernment and given wise counsel as he selects our next Bishop, who would be ever more conformed to You, the Divine Master. Lord, we pray that our next Bishop will have a heart on fire for you and for your Church. May he be filled with wisdom, faithfulness, holiness, and zeal for reigniting the faith and spreading the Gospel throughout Central New Jersey. Through the prayers of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Your Mother and ours, draw our new Bishop and the flocks entrusted to his care to the fullness of eternal life where you live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, God, forever and ever. Amen.

        Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus calls us his friends. Psychologists tell us that a true friend is someone who has seen us at our worst and still loves us.
