Pope Benedict XVI’s Prayer Intentions for August

His general intention is “That public opinion may be more aware of the
problem of millions of displaced persons and refugees and that
concrete solutions may be found for their often tragic situation.”

His mission intention is “That those Christians who are discriminated against and
persecuted in many Countries because of the name of Christ may have
their human rights, equality and religious freedom recognized, in
order to be able to live and profess their own faith freely.”
