Pope asks the Church to pray for the formation of religious men and women and seminarians in May

In The Pope Video for May, Pope Francis lifts up his prayer “that men and women religious, and seminarians, grow in their own vocational journey through human, pastoral, spiritual and community formation, that leads them to be credible witnesses of the Gospel.” The Pope reminds us in his message entrusted to the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network that beginning in the seminary or novitiate, their preparation must develop integrally in direct contact with the lives of other people.
