2022 World Meeting of Families: Pope Francis Prayer for Families - June Video

When things are going well for you, or when they aren’t going so well, there’s a place where you always know that you will find the love you need: your family. The Pope is dedicating his prayer intention to the family for the second month in a row, precisely as the World Meeting of Families draws near. And he does it reminding us that “The family is the place where we learn to live with one another, to live with young people and with those who are older”. He also reminds us of the difficulties that may arise, since “there are always ‘buts.’” Nonetheless, at these moments of difficulty “the Lord is there and accompanies us, helps us, and corrects us,” reminding us that “family love is a personal path of holiness for each one of us.” Join the Pope’s prayer and share his intention with your family. “The family is the place where we learn to live with one another, to live with young people and with those who are older. And by being united—young people, the elderly, adults, children—,by being united in our differences, we evangelize with our example of life. Of course, there is no such thing as a perfect family. There are always “buts.” But that doesn’t matter. We shouldn’t be afraid of mistakes; we have to learn from them so we can move forward. Let’s not forget that God is with us: in our family, in our neighborhood, in the city where we live, He is with us. And He takes care of us. He remains with us at all times in the swaying of the boat tossed by the sea: when we argue, when we suffer, when we’re joyful, the Lord is there and accompanies us, helps us, and corrects us. Family love is a personal path of holiness for each one of us. This is why I chose it as the theme for this month’s World Meeting of Families. Let us pray for Christian families around the world; may each and every family embody and experience unconditional love and advance in holiness in their daily lives.” If you want to see more videos and other content about the Pope's intentions, you can find them at https://www.thepopevideo.org/
