Pope's Intention: For today's martyrs

Pope's Intention: For today's martyrs

We pray that those who risk their lives for the Gospel in various parts of the world inflame the Church with their courage and missionary enthusiasm.


Each month as well we a short video there is a monthly prayer and a monthly reflection to help us understand more about the particular prayer intention.  This month we might ask the question:

Who are the new Martyrs?

The “New Martyrs” include our brothers and sisters compelled to flee their homelands, leaving behind friends, families, and the familiar embrace of their cultures due to their unwavering faith in the Lord. May the Sacred Heart of Jesus be their true and everlasting home, providing strength and healing amid their trials.
