Papal Intentions for April

Matthew Harrison

April 1, 2010
As we enter into a particularly focused period of prayer with the beginning of the Easter Triduum today, let us keep our Holy Father's intentions in our prayers this month.
POPE-AUDIENCEPope Benedict's general prayer intention for April is:
That every tendency to fundamentalism and extremism may be countered by constant respect, by tolerance and by dialogue among all believers.
His mission intention is:
That Christians persecuted for the sake of the Gospel may persevere, sustained by the Holy Spirit, in faithfully witnessing to the love of God for the entire human race.
