Pope Francis' prayer intention for June: Eliminate
arms trade
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis has released his video
message accompanying his monthly prayer intention for June.
This month’s intention is for the elimination of the arms
trade.
The text of the video message reads:
"It is an absurd contradiction to speak of peace, to
negotiate peace, and at the same time, promote or permit the arms trade.
Is this war or that war really a war to solve problems or
is it a commercial war for selling weapons in illegal trade and so that the
merchants of death get rich?
Let us put an end to this situation. Let us pray all
together that national leaders may firmly commit themselves to ending the arms
trade which victimizes so many innocent people."
The Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network of the Apostleship of Prayer developed
the "Pope Video" initiative to assist in the worldwide dissemination
of monthly intentions of the Holy Father in relation to the challenges facing
humanity.
