Pope Francis asks the whole Church to pray for women in April: no to discrimination against them

In The Pope Video for April, Pope Francis lifts up his prayer “that the dignity and worth of women be recognized in every culture, and for an end to the discrimination they face in various parts of the world.” In his monthly intention, Pope Francis asks that governments be committed “to eliminate discriminatory laws everywhere and to work toward guaranteeing women’s human rights.”
