Pope praying for terminally ill in October

Pope Benedict XVI is offered his prayers in October for those who are terminally ill and for the success of World Mission Day, which will be held Oct. 23.

The Pope's general prayer intention for October is: “That the terminally ill may be supported by their faith in God and the love of their brothers and sisters.”

His mission intention is: “That the celebration of World Mission Day may foster in the People of God a passion for evangelization with the willingness to support the missions with prayer and economic aid for the poorest Churches.”
