POPE’S VIDEO – INTENTIONS FOR FEBRUARY •
“This month I make a special request: that we may take good care of creation – a gift freely given – cultivating and protecting it for future generations.” This is Pope Francis’ prayer in the video message with his prayer intention for February.
“Believers and unbelievers agree that the hearth is our comment heritage, the fruits of which should benefit everyone.” Pope Francis says that in the world we live, “relationship between poverty and the fragility of the planet requires another way of managing the economy and measuring progress, conceiving a new way of living.” We need a change that unites all people, said the Pope, freeing us from the “slavery of consumerism” and to protect “our common home.”

“Believers and unbelievers agree that the hearth is our comment heritage, the fruits of which should benefit everyone. However, what is happening in the world we live in? The relationship between poverty and the fragility of the planet requires another way of managing the economy and measuring progress, conceiving a new way of living. Because we need a change that unites us all, free from the slavery of consumerism. This month I make a special request: that we may take good care of creation – a gift freely given – cultivating and protecting it for future generations. Caring for our common home.”
