.- Today the Vatican’s press office released Pope Benedict’s prayer intentions for the month of May. The Holy Father is praying that the laity enourage vocations and that the Church be unified in its efforts to evangelize.
Pope Benedict's general prayer intention is: "That the laity and the Christian communities may be responsible promoters of priestly and religious vocations."
His mission intention is: "That the recently founded Catholic Churches, grateful to the Lord for the gift of faith, may be ready to share in the universal mission of the Church, offering their availability to preach the Gospel throughout the world."
