Pope's prayers for August

by Hannah Tooley

Each month the Holy Father releases two new prayers, one called a universal prayer and the other called an evangelisation prayer. This month's universal prayer is: "That volunteers may give themselves generously to the service of the needy."

He has also released an evangelisation prayer: "That setting aside our very selves we may learn to be neighbours to those who find themselves on the margins of human life and society."

Last month the Pope prayed: "That political responsibility may be lived at all levels as a high form of charity," and that "amid social inequalities, Latin American Christians may bear witness to love for the poor and contribute to a more fraternal society."

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
