The Holy See’s Press Office made known on Friday the prayer intentions of Pope Benedict for the month of July . During the coming month the Holy Father will be praying for an increase in volunteerism and for World Youth Day.
Pope Benedict's general prayer intention for July is: "That there may be an increase in the number of those who, as volunteers, offer their services to the Christian community with generous and prompt availability."
His mission intention is: "That the World Youth Day held in Sydney, Australia, may awaken the fire of divine love in young people and make them sowers of hope for a new humanity."
