Bishop Robert Brennan will be leading the Rosary Wednesday evening at Corpus Christi Church, Woodside as part of the Diocese of Brooklyn’s Lenten Pilgrimage. The bishop said he will include prayer intentions for Pope Francis during the service, following news of the Holy Father’s illness.

The Pontiff was taken to Rome’s Gemelli Hospital Wednesday afternoon after suffering effects from a respiratory infection.

I, along with so many of the Catholic Faithful, pray for the Holy Father, who was hospitalized earlier today. In fact, we will pray in a special way during tonight’s Lenten Pilgrimage at Corpus Christi Church, 31-30 61st Street in Woodside. We will be praying the Rosary at 7:30.
