Each month the Pope invites all members of the Church to pray for particular needs. This month the Prayer Intentions of the Pope are:
For the New Martyrs
Pope Francis invites prayer “for those around the world who risk their lives for the Gospel, to inspire the Church with their courage and missionary zeal.”
Join with us in praying for the needs of the Church, the Congregation and the world, in particular for:
SIGNIFICANT ANNIVERSARY DAYS AND FEAST DAYS IN THE MARIST FAMILY
