Pope Benedict July 24 09.jpgThe Holy Father’s prayer intentions for the month of August:


The general intention
That
public opinion may be more aware of the problems of millions of displaced
persons and refugees, and that concrete solutions may be found for their often
tragic situation.

The mission intention
That those Christians who are
discriminated against and persecuted in many countries because of the name of
Christ may have their human rights, equality and religious freedom recognized,
in order to be able to live and profess their own faith freely.
