For me, prayer is a surge of the heart; it is a simple look turned toward heaven, it is a cry of recognition and of love, embracing both trial and joy. - St. Thérèrse of Liseaux

The Holy Father's prayer intentions for June are:

General: That all Christians may cultivate a deep and personal friendship with Christ so to communicate the strength of his love to every person they meet.

Mission: That the International Eucharistic Congress in Quebec may lead to greater understanding that the Eucharist is the heart of the Church and the source of evangelization.

Pro-Life Prayer Intention

For increased ecumenical collaboration in defense of life.
