Today we pray for Bishop John McCormack, the Bishop of the Diocese of Manchester.
Bishop McCormack was ordained to the priesthood in 1960 and ordained to the episcopate in 1995. He has been the Bishop of the Diocese of Manchester since 1998.
May he be led always by the Holy Spirit and always open to the Spirit’s promptings. May he, as successor to the Apostles, act always in the best interests of his flock and the Church as a whole. May he grow in conformity to Christ each day. May Mary watch over him, shelter him in her mantle and draw him ever closer to her Son.
