Pope Benedict XVI
General Intention: Access to Water.
That all peoples may have access to water and other resources needed for daily life. Pope Benedict’s prayer intentions for this month of February are that all people have full access to water and the resources necessary for survival. Water is the most precious natural resource on earth as without it no living thing can survive. But our planet’s water resources are not shared out equitably. Around a billion people, largely in developed nations, do not have access to clean safe water.
Missionary Intention: Health Workers.That the Lord may sustain the efforts of health workers assisting the sick and elderly in the world's poorest regions.
