According to the Vatican Information Service:
Vatican City, 28 February 2013 (VIS) – Pope Benedict's general prayer intention for March is:
"That respect for nature may grow with the awareness that all creation is God's work entrusted to human responsibility."And we also join in a special way in his mission intention: "That bishops, priests, and deacons may be tireless messengers of the Gospel to the ends of the earth."
God bless the Church!
