The Pope’s Prayer Intentions
The Pope's monthly prayer intention is a global call to transform our prayers into "concrete actions," serving as a compass for a mission of compassion for the world.

For a shared mission
Pope Francis reminds us of the importance of walking together, making ourselves “co-responsible for the Church’s mission.” He also emphasizes that priests are not “the bosses of the laity, but their pastors,” and that “Jesus called us, one and others – not one above others, or one on one side and others on another side, but complementing each other. We are community.”
The Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network (PWPN) is an official Pontifical work, entrusted to the Jesuits (Society of Jesus). Its International Directorate is in the Vatican City State, and each country where it operates has a National Director or Coordinator. Fr. Frédéric Fornos, SJ, the International Director of PWPN (Vatican Office) has entrusted the Society of Jesus of Malaysia-Singapore (MAS) to look into these three nations (Malaysia-Singapore-Brunei) as its regional Prayer Network focus.
Conversation Hour is part of the Malaysian PWPN initiative derived from the Ignatian Spiritual Conversation model.
Better Together
What is the synodal way?
When Pope Francis visited the young people of Singapore, he said “If you start arguing, “My religion is more important than yours...,” or “Mine is the true one, yours is not true....,” where does this lead? A young person answered, “Destruction”. The Pope replied, "That is correct.”
