Each month a prayer intention is released, either for a universal need or for a specific evangelism need, through which Catholics are asked to join in praying with the Holy Father, Pope Francis.
The intention for February 2019 is:
For a generous welcome of the victims of human trafficking, of enforced prostitution, and of violence.
A presbyter (priest) of Maitland-Newcastle, and a student of life and of the world with many eclectic interests, I am always seeking to understand the world around me. I am engaged in inner city parish pastoral ministry based in Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia, and seek always to proclaim the Good News of the Kingdom of God and to assist others to do the same in their own way.
With extensive experience in preparing for and executing liturgies and other ritual events, I am privileged to serve the broader Church through serving in a number of liturgical roles for the Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle.
