Does the Catholic Church teach that we need to pray for Jesus?

No, the Catholic Church does not teach that Jesus needs our prayers. The real question is why would the Savior of the world need us to pray for him? He is fully God and fully man and is perfect, being raised from the dead. This question is like suggesting that the saints in heaven need our prayers. They don't. We need their prayers and we need Jesus' blessings.

an emotional appeal from Jesus to pray for him:
Stay awake and pray that you may not come into the time of trial
As can be seen, the text says something entirely different.
