Pope Leo's Prayer Intentions for October
Each year, the Holy Father asks for our prayers for a specific intention each month. You are invited to respond to the Holy Father's request and join many people worldwide in praying for this intention each month.
For collaboration between different religious traditions
Let us pray that believers in different religious traditions might work together to defend and promote peace, justice, and human fraternity.
Lord Jesus,
You, who in diversity are one
and look lovingly at every person,
help us to recognize ourselves as brothers and sisters,
called to live, pray, work, and dream together.
We live in a world full of beauty,
but also wounded by deep divisions.
Sometimes religions, instead of uniting us,
become a cause of confrontation.
Give us your Spirit to purify our hearts,
so that we may recognize what unites us
and, from there, learn again how to listen
and collaborate without destroying.
