Church Prayers

Pope Benedict's General Prayer Intention for January is: "That the family may become more and more a place of training in charity, personal growth and transmission of the faith."

And his Mission Intention: "That the different Christian confessions, aware of the need for a new evangelisation in this period of profound transformations, may be committed to announcing the Good News and moving towards the full unity of all Christians in order to offer a more credible testimony of the Gospel."

Please pray...

For the repose of the soul of Pope John Paul II.

For Cardinal Cormac Murphy O'Connor and all the bishops.

For all priests and religious of the Catholic Church and those churches that are in communion with her.

For all Catholic Orders and Agencies.

For Catholic Missionaries.

For the Holy Souls in Purgatory, especially those with no one to pray for them.

For Christians who are persecuted on account of their faith.

For Christian unity: may we be one as Our Lord Himself prayed.

For the good of other Christian Churches and communities.

For followers of other religions and those who follow none.
