'Living, speaking, and acting without violence is not surrendering, losing or giving up anything, but aspiring to everything.'
Pope Francis’ prayer intention for the month of April is to pray for or a nonviolent culture.
The Holy Father asks us to remember that, even in cases of self-defence, peace is the ultimate goal, and that a lasting peace can exist only without weapons.
“Let us pray for a more widespread culture of nonviolence, which will progress when countries and citizens alike resort less and less to the use of arms.” the pope added.

Listen to the voices of missionaries
World Mission Month celebrated a unique global initiative that unites lay and religious missionaries from all corners of the world. The campaign is an invitation to answer the burning passion of our hearts and set ourselves in motion. By listening to our missionary hearts, we are able to share our love of God, and open our hearts to welcome one another, as a global family.
“We are ordinary people, yet our hearts are ablaze with an extraordinary passion, a flame for God, for humanity, for our collective future” can be heard in the background of the video in many languages, which reminds us of our global unity.
