In light of the attacks on Pope Benedict which are sure to continue in the media, I thought it would be a good idea to pray more frequently for the Holy Father and to help you remind others to do the same.
Here are some trinkets which you might consider in this cause.
With the help of "Vincenzo", the official WDTPRS photoshopper, I made a cafepress store for buttons and the like.

There are as well packs of 100 buttons in different sizes which you could distribute to people.
From the the Enchiridion of Indulgences, #25:
A partial indulgence is granted to the Christian faithful who, in a spirit of filial devotion, devoutly recite any duly approved prayer for the Supreme Pontiff (e.g., the Oremus pro Pontifice):
V. Let us pray for our Pontiff, Pope Benedict.
R. May the Lord preserve him, and give him life, and bless him upon earth, and deliver him not to the will of his enemies.
Our Father. Hail Mary.
Let us pray.
O God, Shepherd and Ruler of all Thy faithful people, look mercifully upon Thy servant Benedict, whom Thou hast chosen as shepherd to preside over Thy Church. Grant him, we beseech Thee, that by his word and example, he may edify those over whom he hath charge, so that together with the flock committed to him, may he attain everlasting life. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Enchiridion of Indulgences is an important document; I wish it were more widely promulgated. If I am correct, there were two recent indulgences associated with the Feasts of Corpus Christi and of the Sacred Heart. Then there are the indulgences for various devotional practices (alongside the usual conditions) – a treasury largely unspent in this age, it would seem. I hope I am wrong. Could you recommend an English translation?
That was beautiful music, Father. We must keep on defending and praying for the Pope against these horrible and unjust attacks that are being perpetrated against both him and the Church.
I pray that prayer everyday after my Rosary, Father Z! I copied it into a little notebook I carry with me! Yes, we must keep on defending and praying for the Holy Father!
