Interreligious Dialogue Prayer Request from the Pope

Pope Francis’ prayer intention for January is around interreligious dialogue.  The Pope states he is praying so that “sincere dialogue between men and women of different religions may yield fruits of peace and justice”.  Now, more than ever, interreligous dialogue is imperative.  Learning about one another and our faith traditions, especially seeing that there are more similarities than differences among one another, is vital to a peaceful future.
