The Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network’s list of prayer intentions set by Pope Francis for 2024:
August: For Political Leaders
Pope Francis invites prayers “so that political leaders may serve their people, work for comprehensive human development and the common good, attending to those who have lost their jobs and prioritizing the poorest.”
September: For the Cry of the Earth
“Let us pray that each of us hears with the heart the cry of the Earth and victims of natural disasters and climate change, personally committing to care for the world we inhabit.”
October: For a Shared Mission
Pope Francis asks for prayers so that the Church “continues to support a synodal way of life, under the sign of co-responsibility, promoting participation, communion, and shared mission among priests, religious, and laypeople.”
November: For Parents Who Have Lost a Child
“Let us pray that all parents mourning the death of a child find support in the community and receive heart’s peace from the consoling Spirit.”
December: For Pilgrims of Hope
Pope Francis requests this month’s prayers “so that this Jubilee strengthens us in faith, helps us recognize Christ risen in our lives, and transforms us into pilgrims of Christian hope.”
