Pope's February Prayer Intentions Dedicated to Mentally Handicapped
(02 Feb 08 - RV) Pope Benedict XVI has issued his intentions for the month of February.
The Holy Father’s prayer intention for the next month is that the mentally handicapped
may not be marginalized, but respected and lovingly helped to live in a way worthy
of their physical and social condition. The Pope’s mission intention is that the
Institutes of Consecrated Life, which are so flourishing in mission countries, may
rediscover the missionary dimension and, faithful to the radical choice of evangelical
counsels, be generous in bearing witness to and announcing Christ to the ends of the
earth.
