Pray with the Pope: That everyone have food
In his prayer intention for May 2026, distributed by the Popes Worldwide Prayer Network », Pope Leo invites us to pray: “That no one might lack the food they need and that we might learn to live more responsibly, recognising that the earth’s resources are a gift for everyone”.
In his video message, the Pope offers a moral call to action on hunger in a world of abundance.
He challenges the global culture of waste and excess, urging a shift toward gratitude, simplicity, and responsible living.
Food, he says, is not merely a commodity but a sacred sign of communion—one that carries a moral responsibility to be shared justly and lovingly.
He encourages communities everywhere to take concrete action—supporting the vulnerable, reducing waste, and fostering awareness of our shared responsibility.
The Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network has launched a new global initiative: a website, Pray with the Pope, featuring the Pope’s monthly intention videos and instructions on how to pray, available in both written and audio formats. Click here to visit the website ».
