For Government leaders and Politicians (number 2 of the Prayer of the Faithful)

That our political leaders will be clearly prepared and competent to play politics properly without deforming its nature, hindering its purpose and cutting its message.

That our government leaders and legislators may be inspired by the beatitudes to serve the poor and the voiceless.

That politicians will realize very deeply that they can function well only when they are adequately grounded on the authentic nature and requirements of politics that is relating politics to its origin in God’s divine plan.

That politicians will have a firm and proper sense of priority, a good grasp of the criteria to guide them in their work.

That politicians will realize deeply that the art of politics is essentially a very moral duty.

That politicians should always promote the moral truth in public life.

That politicians should act responsibly on the basis of factual knowledge that is avoiding biases that are coming from party pressures or selfish interests.
