"O Jesus, Eternal Priest,
keep Your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart,
where none may touch them.
Keep unstained their anointed hands
which daily touch Your Sacred Body.
Keep unsullied their lips
daily purpled with Your Precious Blood.
Keep pure and unearthly their hearts
sealed with the sublime mark of the priesthood.
Let Your holy love surround them
and shield them from the world’s contagion.
Bless their labors with abundant fruit,
and may the souls to whom they minister
be their joy and consolation here,
and in heaven their beautiful and everlasting crown.
Amen."
(St. Therese of the Child Jesus)

*O Virgin Mary, Queen of the Clergy,
protect and guide our priests. Amen.

St. Therese of the Child Jesus, pray for our priests. Amen.*
 
Jesus, keep them all close to your Heart, bless and protect them abundantly in time and in eternity. Amen.

Mary, Queen of Apostles, pray for us and obtain for us many faithful and holy priests

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus for Priests

Remember, O most loving Heart of Jesus,
that they for whom I pray
are those for whom You prayed so earnestly
the night before Your death.
These are they to whom You look to continue
with You in Your sorrows when others forsake You,
who share Your griefs and have inherited your persecutions,
according to Your word:
That the servant is not greater than his Lord.

Remember, O Heart of Jesus,
that they are the objects of the world’s hatred
and Satan’s deadliest snares.
Keep them then, O Jesus,
in the safe citadel of Your Sacred Heart
and there let them be sanctified in truth.
May they be one with you and one among themselves,
and grant that multitudes
may be brought through their word
to believe in You and love You.

Amen.

Jesus, keep them all close to your Heart, bless and protect them abundantly in time and in eternity. Amen.

"O Jesus, I pray for your faithful and fervent priests;
for your unfaithful and tepid priests;
for your priests laboring at home
or abroad in distant mission fields;
for your lonely and desolate priests;
for your young priests;
for your aged priests;
for your sick priests;
for your dying priests;
for the souls of your priests in purgatory.

But above all, I commend to you
the priests dearest to me;
the priest who baptized me;
the priests who absolved me from my sins;
the priests at whose Masses I assisted
and who gave me your Body and Blood in holy communion;
the priests who taught and instructed me
or helped and encouraged me;
all the priests to whom I am indebted
in any other way.

O Jesus, keep them all close to your heart,
and bless them abundantly
in time and in eternity. Amen."
(*Straight from the Heart *by Rev. Fr. Mario Jose C. Ladra)

O Virgin Mary, Queen of the Clergy,
protect and guide our priests. Amen.
 
Lord Jesus, You have chosen Your priests from among us
and sent them out to proclaim Your word
and to act in Your name.
For so great a gift to Your Church,
we give You praise and thanksgiving.
We ask You to fill them with the fire of Your love,
that their ministry may reveal Your presence in the Church.
Since they are earthen vessels,
we pray that Your power shine out through their weakness.
In their afflictions let them never be crushed;
in their doubts never despair;
in temptation never be destroyed;
in persecution never abandoned.

Inspire them through prayer
to live each day the mystery of Your dying and rising.
In time of weakness send them Your Spirit,
and help them to praise Your heavenly Father
and pray for poor sinners.
By the same Holy Spirit,
put Your word on their lips
and Your love in their hearts,
to bring good news to the poor
and healing to the brokenhearted.
And may the gift of Mary, Your mother,
to the disciple whom You loved,
be Your gift to every priest.
Grant that she who formed You in her human image,
may form them in Your Divine image,
by the power of Your Spirit,
to the glory of God the Father.

Amen.

O Mary conceived without sin,
pray for us who have recourse to you.

Lord Jesus,
hear our prayer for the spiritual renewal of bishops, priests, deacons,
brothers, sisters, lay ministers and seminarians,
especially those of our own diocese.
We praise you for giving their ministry to the Church.
In these days, renew them with the gifts of Your Spirit.

You once opened the Holy Scriptures to Your disciples
when You walked on this earth.
Now renew Your ordained and chosen ones
with the truth and power of Your Word.

In the Eucharist,
you gave Your disciples renewed life and hope.
Nourish Your consecrated ones
with Your Own Body and Blood.
Help them to imitate in their lives
the death and resurrection they celebrate around Your altar.

Give them enthusiasm for the Gospel,
zeal for the salvation of all people,
courage in leadership and humility in service.

Give them Your love for one another
and for all their brothers and sisters in You.
For You love them, Lord Jesus
and we love and pray for them in Your Holy Name.
Amen.

A PRAYER FOR PRIESTS
John Cardinal O’Connor

Lord Jesus, we your people pray to You for our priests. You have given them to us for OUR needs. We pray for them in THEIR needs.

We know that You have made them priests in the likeness of your own priesthood. You have consecrated them, set them aside, anointed them, filled them with the Holy Spirit, appointed them to teach, to preach, to minister, to console, to forgive, and to feed us with Your Body and Blood.

Yet we know, too, that they are one with us and share our human weaknesses. We know too that they are tempted to sin and discouragement as are we, needing to be ministered to, as do we, to be consoled and forgiven, as do we. Indeed, we thank You for choosing them from among us, so that they understand us as we understand them, suffer with us and rejoice with us, worry with us and trust with us, share our beings, our lives, our faith.

We ask that You give them this day the gift You gave Your chosen ones on the way to Emmaus: Your presence in their hearts, Your holiness in their souls, Your joy in their spirits. And let them see You face to face in the breaking of the Eucharistic bread.

We pray to You, O Lord, through Mary the mother of all priests, for Your priests and for ours. Amen.

Ven. Bishop Fulton J. Sheen,
Please pray to the Lord JESUS,
for Holy prayer and works in Knights of Columbus,
Good Counsel, Human Life International, Maternal Homes,
Priests For Life, Missionaries of The Poor, Missionaries of Charity,
and 40 Days For Life & Protectors of God’s Precious Infants.
May John Cardinal O’Connor’s Edict that any father and mother
with child, in the family way go to any Catholic Church for help
be widely known. Fr. Pavone exhorted the same thing for all houses
of mercy.
Pray for us.
Amen.
 
:highprayer: Heavenly Father, protect and bless our priests, give them compassion, strength and perseverance; surround them with special gifts to minister to Your flock and give them wisdom, discernment, forgiveness, and the Holy Spirit.

Keep unstained their anointed hands
which daily touch Your Sacred Body.

Keep pure and unearthly their hearts
sealed with the sublime mark of the priesthood.
Let Your holy love surround them
and shield them from the world’s contagion.
Bless their labors with abundant fruit,
and may the souls to whom they minister
be their joy and consolation here,
and in heaven their beautiful and everlasting crown.

*O Virgin Mary, Queen of the Clergy,
protect and guide our priests. Amen.

St. Therese of the Child Jesus, pray for our priests. Amen.*
 
Holy Blessed Trinity,
I offer You all my prayers,
works, joys and sufferings of this day.
No matter what little thing I do,
I offer it to You,
In reparation for holy priests,
For the conversion of priests,
For more priests,
For the return of many priests who have left the priesthood,
For the priests still in Purgatory,
especially those most in need.
I offer myself this day
as an offering for holy priests,
in union with the suffering,
death and resurrection of Jesus.
And in union with the Sacred Body and Blood of Jesus,
Consecrated daily on all the altars of the world
by your holy priests.
I make this offering freely,
trusting that You will take care of all my needs,
spiritual and temporal for the state in life
to which You have called me.
I make this offering through The Immaculate Hands
and Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary,
Mother of Divine Love,
that she might take this imperfect prayer
and present it to her Son, Jesus,
that through his Sacred Heart,
He might perfect it and present it to our Father
by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Through Jesus Christ, Our Lord.

Amen.
 
:signofcross: Eternal God, please bless our priests, who represent you on this earth. Make them more greatly aware of the grace that you pour out through them when they minister the sacraments, and help them to fall more deeply in love with You after each and every Mass that they celebrate. Please strengthen our priests, who shepherd your flock, when they are in doubt of their faith, that they may be examples of your Truth and guide us always on the path to you. We ask these things of You our Eternal Priest.
Amen.
