Vatican City, Mar 31, 2005 / 22:00 pm
Today, the Vatican announced Pope John Paul's general prayer and mission intentions for the month of April.
For his main prayer intention, the Holy Father asks, "That Christians may live their Sundays more truly as days of the Lord dedicated in a special way to God and their neighbor."
Likewise, his mission intention for the month, focusing on the Church's call to evangelize all people is, "That every Christian community should have a burning zeal for holiness, so as to kindle many missionary vocations."
