Hopefully some relevant questions re: "Raccolta":
1. Why there?
1. Which, if any, others is it in?
 1. Which, if any, are pre/post to that given?
2. What is meant by the Pope in the example given? Is this Categorical, particular, or what?

Oh, the questions don't have to be for you; I'm just making sure that more than two are "tracking".

So many are confused about the necessity of praying for the Pope's intentions to gain indulgences.
We are not praying for the current Pope's private or public intentions.

Holy Mother Church set the intentions of the Pope and they do NOT  change from one Pontificate to another.
The intentions are:

1.  the exaltation of Holy Mother Church
2.  the extirpation of heresies
3.  the propagation of the Faith
4.  the conversion of sinners
5.  concord between Christian princes

Thank God for tradition!
The above was taken from this week's SSPX bulletin which I assume was taken directly from the very first Raccolta printed in English in 1858 page 461 under Summary of Indulgences which reads:
"for the extirpation of heresies and schisms,
for the propagation of the Catholic faith,
for peace and concord amongst Christian princes,
and for the other necessities of Holy Church."

I posted this in hopes of helping anyone uncomfortable about praying for the Pope.

I'm going to assume that this is just another "Mea culpa", and leave it with a "Thank you ma'am."
