October Missionary Intention
(October 01,2011) Before we go further, we bring you the Pope’s Mission Intention for the Month of October: “That the celebration of World Mission Day may foster in the People of God a passion for evangelization with the willingness to support the mission with prayer and economic aid for the poorest churches”. On the 23rd of this month we celebrate World Mission Day. In his message for this day, Pope Benedict reminds us that as the contemporary followers of Christ, we are called upon to share our gift of faith. If we truly know of God’s deep love revealed in Jesus, we won’t be able to keep this good news to ourselves. We will be on fire to share the faith and to do everything possible to support those who do this at the front line, especially in places far from home. When we do the Church’s work of evangelization, we grow stronger in our own faith the Pope said.. and the proclamation of the Gospel “is the most precious service that the Church can render to humanity.” Let us join Pope Benedict in praying for the success of this annual celebration of evangelization. May we all have a passion for spreading the Gospel that leads us to do something concrete—support the work of the missions in the poorest countries through prayer and contributions. In Pope Benedict’s words, “May World Mission Day revive in each one the joy and desire of going. to meet humanity, bringing Christ to all.
