This week, we will observe the annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity. In 1894, Pope Leo XIII encouraged the practice of a Prayer Octave for Unity and encouraged Catholics to recite the Rosary for the intention of Christian unity. A little more than a decade later, two Americans, Father Paul James Wattson and Sister Lurana White, started a prayer movement to pray for the return of non-Catholic Christians to the Holy See.
