Vatican City, Sep 30, 2010 / 09:36 am
The Holy Father is asking for prayers in the month of October that universities might provide an environment that bears witness to the Gospel message.
Pope Benedict's general prayer intention for October is: "That Catholic Universities may more and more be places where, in the light of the Gospel, it is possible to experience the harmonious unity existing between faith and reason."
His mission intention is: "That the World Mission Day may afford an occasion for understanding that the task of proclaiming Christ is an absolutely necessary service to which the Church is called for the benefit of humanity."
