Pope’s prayer intentions for January 2014

December 31, 2013

The Vatican has announced Pope Francis’s prayer intentions for January 2014.

The Pope’s general intention is “that all may promote authentic economic development that respects the dignity of all peoples.”

His mission intention is “that Christians of diverse denominations may walk toward the unity desired by Christ.”

The 2014 papal prayer intentions are a legacy of Pope Benedict XVI: he entrusted the intentions to the Apostleship of Prayer on February 1, ten days before he announced his resignation.
