[Church of England] The good news of Christ needs to be shared, Pope Leo said in a May 14 video message marking the start of the worldwide Thy Kingdom Come prayer movement for more people to come to know Jesus.
Christ is “everything” for us and in him we find fullness of life and its meaning. This is not something about which we can keep silent, the pope said in the message, which was recorded in English. Thy Kingdom Come’s 2026 prayer campaign is May 14-24, Ascension Day to Pentecost.
“In him, we find the fullness of life and its meaning. This is not something about which we can keep silent. It is something to proclaim boldly, for it is indeed good news and needs to be shared,” Leo said, referencing Matthew 10:27.
Leo follows his predecessor, Pope Francis, in giving his public backing to Thy Kingdom Come. The movement was first launched a decade ago, uniting more than a million Christians in prayer worldwide for more people to come to faith in Christ.
Every person, household and church is encouraged to pray during the 11 days in their own way.
