The Apostleship of Prayer announced this general intention chosen by the Pope: «That international attention towards the poorer countries may give rise to more concrete help, in particular to relieve them of the crushing burden of foreign debt.»
The Holy Father also chooses an apostolic intention for each month. In June he will pray: «That the particular Churches operating in regions marked by violence may be sustained by the love and concrete closeness of all the Catholics in the world.»
