PRAY FOR YOUR PRIEST




2 Thes 2:16-3:5

Finally, brothers and sisters, pray for us, so that the word of the LORD may speed forward and be glorified, as it did among you, and that we may be delivered from perverse and wicked people, for not all have faith. But the LORD is faithful; HE will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one. We are confident of you in the LORD that what we instruct you, you are doing and will continue to do. May the LORD direct your hearts to the love of GOD and to the endurance of CHRIST.


These words from St. Paul could easily come from your Priest. PRAY FOR YOUR PRIEST


Prayer by Pope Benedict XVI

Lord Jesus Christ, eternal High Priest, you offered yourself to the Father on the altar of the cross and through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit gave your priestly people a share in your redeeming sacrifice. Hear our prayer for the sanctification of our priests. Grant that all who are ordained to the ministerial priesthood may be ever more conformed to you, the Divine Master. May they preach the Gospel with pure heart and clear conscience. Let them be shepherds according to your own heart, single-minded in service to you and to the Church, and shining examples of a holy, simple, and joyful life. Through the prayers of the Blessed Virgin Mary, your Mother and ours, draw all priests and the flocks entrusted to their care to the fullness of eternal life where you live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
