THE POPE’S MONTHLY INTENTIONS August 2018

Universal The Treasure of Families

That any far-reaching decisions of economists and politicians may protect the family as one of the treasures of humanity.

Rosary Prayer Intentions for August (provided by Our Legions of Mary)

SPECIAL August Rosary Intentions: that economists develop strong and viable plans to include what is best for all segments of the work force … that congressional parties work in harmony and peace to help the citizenry maintain an adequate standard of living … that the president provide the leadership and inspiration to improve our country’s economic and financial growth … that there be a meaningful exchange of economic ideas between our country and world countries which will promote the optimal economic well-being of all … that individual families will reap the financial and economic benefits of good sound monetary decisions … that congress generously and compassionately address the needs of our families and put aside their own political interests. ON-GOING Personal Rosary Intentions Joyful Mysteries for the unborn, newly born, young children, teenagers, families and friendships. Luminous Mysteries for the newly baptized, those receiving confession and the Holy Eucharist for the first time, newlyweds and those already married – love/peace/unity – now and forever. Sorrowful Mysteries for the sick and suffering, the dying, the oppressed, the tortured, the persecuted, the lonely, the abandoned and the depressed. Glorious Mysteries for the souls in purgatory, forgotten souls, newly confirmed and ALL life, the intercession of Mary to Jesus for our daily intentions and the requested intentions of others.
