Pope Benedict's Prayer Intentions for April

Pope Benedict's general prayer intention for April is: "That the Lord may bless farmers' work with an abundant harvest and sensitise the richer populations to the drama of hunger in the world".

There's more than enough food to go around, so let's move it around!

His mission intention is: "That the Christians who operate in the territories where the conditions of the poor, the weak and the women and children are most tragic, may be signs of hope, thanks to their courageous testimony to the Gospel of solidarity and love".

Note, pray for the poor, but also pray for those who serve the poor!
