Pope Leo XIV’s prayer intention for the month of January
Let us pray that praying with the Word of God be nourishment for our lives and a source of hope in our communities, helping us to build a more fraternal and missionary Church
Premieres 7 Jan 2026
With the first prayer intention of the year, Pope Leo XIV invites us to rediscover the transforming power of God’s Word, the Word in which “we find the light that guides our steps.” Along with the Holy Father, we turn to prayer, asking that we might be a Church that “prays with the Word, that is built upon it and shares it with joy, so that in every person, the hope of a new world may be born again.” You are not alone. By praying you join the millions of people who belong to the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network who, from every corner of the world, are praying for the challenges of humanity and the Church’s mission.
