![]() A Prayer for Pope Leo XIV God of all people, In trust and gratitude, we turn to your Holy Spirit. We know your Spirit has been active during this time of conclave, guiding the prayerful discernment that has brought your Church to this important moment. Now, as Pope Leo XIV assumes the Petrine Ministry, we pray that your Spirit draw ever closer to our new Holy Father, illuminating his path so that he may faithfully see and respond to the needs of your people. We pray that Pope Leo XIV be strengthened in his ministry. May he continue building bridges that connect us to one another. May he be an example of faith, hope and love. We pray that you give him joy in his work and a renewed fervor for your Gospel message. May he never lose sight of Christ who walks before us and among us — particularly in the most vulnerable, the forgotten and the outcast. Christ Jesus, bless Pope Leo XIV — and bless us, your holy people, as together we strive to be your Body in our wounded world. Amen.

Stop by, bring a friend, or simply enjoy me in the garden. Questions? Email [email protected]. MEDOR REFLECTION In today’s responsorial psalm we hear: “We are his people, the sheep of his flock”. Just as Jesus, the Good Shepherd, cares for his flock, we are called to Shepherd our brothers and sisters through the partnership that OLQP shares with our Medor, Haiti family. We demonstrate this call by supporting education for 3,300 students, through the planning of 1.5M trees through the agroforestry program, and through the promotion of clean water and solar energy initiatives in Medor. As shepherds, we nurture their efforts, which have undoubtedly improved life in Medor, as former students return as adults to fill full-me jobs, as more families have clean water, and as crops grown feed the hungry. Furthermore, as the Hai Easter Drive comes to a close, remember that all involved are His sheep - we can trust Jesus to protect us at OLQP, and our family in Medor, as our longstanding partnership continues. Please consider a donation to the Haiti Easter Drive as the Hai Easter Drive concludes. Donations may be made by check to OLQP (memo: “Haiti”) or online here.
