God of faith,
Hear the deepest prayer of our hearts,
for a child to be ours.
Help us to believe –
even when we wrestle with doubt,
even when months pass empty,
even when darkness threatens our joy –
that your promise of love for us
remains faithful, good, and true.

God of hope,
Hold our dreams for a child
within your loving hands…

Pope Francis is praying for the parents of Charlie Gard after a U.S. doctor told them nothing could be done to help their son.

Fil-fatt, ill-Vatikan iddeċieda li jitfi l-funtani kollha li għandu, kemm dawk it-tnejn li hemm fi Pjazza San Pietru, kif ukoll il-funtani li jinsabu fil-Ġonna tal-Vatikan.
