*O most beautiful Flower of Mount Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, who brought forth the Son of God still remaining a Virgin, assist us in this necessity. O Star of the Sea, help us, and show us that you are our Mother.

O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and earth, we humbly ask you from the depths of our heart to help us in this necessity. There are none who can withstand your power. O show us that you are our Mother.

O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. *Sweet Mother, we place this cause in your hands. Amen
 
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.

Mary, Queen of Apostles, pray for them!
 
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 an excellent example to Priests & all,
Please pray to the Lord JESUS,
for Holy prayer and works in Knights of Columbus,
Good Counsel, Human Life International, Paternal & Maternal Homes,
Priests For Life, Missionaries of The Poor, Missionaries of Charity,
and 40 Days For Life & Protectors of God’s Precious Infants as
you always pray for the proclaiming of the Gospel & helping the poor.
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.

Catholic Prayers: Prayer for Priests and Religious
O Jesus, our great High Priest, hear my humble prayers on behalf of Thy servants.
Give them a deep faith, a bright and firm hope, and a burning love which will ever
increase in the course of their life. In their loneliness, comfort them. In their
sorrows, strengthen them. In their frustrations, point out to them that it is
through suffering that the soul is purified, and show them that they are needed by
the Church; they are needed by souls; they are needed for the work of
redemption.
O Loving Mother Mary, Mother of Priests and religious, take to your heart your
children who are close to you because of the power which they have received to
carry on the work of Christ in a world which needs them so much. Be their
comfort, be their joy, be their strength, and especially help them to live and to
defend the ideals of consecrated celibacy.
AMEN​

O Lord God Almighty,
Thank you so very much that led by Your Priests & Religous by Your Grace
we Proclaim The Gospel of Life;
with works reflecting Your Compassion, for otherwise a person’s faith is void.
Help us to surrender to Your Grace within, experiencing joy even through sorrow.
Help us to show Your Heartfelt Concern in every little way, so that they will know
we are Christians by our charity. Help us to be like the Good Samaritan, doing
doing all we are able full of faith, hope, and charity in feeding the hungry,
giving drink to the thirsty, clothing to those who need them, shelter to the homeless,
help the sick, visit the imprisoned, and with love and concern minister to those who have
had someone who faithfully fell asleep from this earth into Your Friendship with
prayers for the fallen asleep. Help us to truly mourn this temporary parting
with hope of reunion in Heaven forever.
With thank you for Your Intercessors, Branches on The Vine in Heaven,
and on earth. But thank You for recourse to The Holy Angels and Saints
whose prayers avow much as we rely on them with their deep concern for us.
A special thanksgiving for Priests for Life & Sisters of Life & John Paul ii,
& Mother Teresa, & Saint Joseph Protector of The Holy Family, and
last but not least Blessed Virgin Mary. Help us to imitate the Saints,
as they imitated Christ. Help us to grow in Sanctity with awe and trembling,
and help the defenseless and all of the poorest of the poor.
In The Name of Your Dearly Beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ,
Who Lives and Reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, One God,
Forever and Ever,
Amen.

comfort him In his sorrows,
strengthen him In his frustrations,
point out to him that it is through suffering that the soul is purified,
and show him that he is needed by the Church,
he is needed by souls,
he is needed for the work of redemption.

O loving Mother Mary,
Mother of Priests,
take to your heart your son
who is close to you because of his priestly ordination,
and because of the power
which he has received to carry on the work of Christ
in a world which needs him so much.

Mary, Queen of Apostles, pray for them!
 
Grant, O Lord,
that every hand laid upon you at the altar
may be a friendly hand,
whose touch is tender and consoling as Joseph’s was;
that the lips which form so many sacred words
may never be profaned by frivolous or unworthy speech;
that priests may guard,
even in the noisy streets of the city,
the impress of their noble functions,
the bright token that they have
but lately come down from your holy mountain;
and in their garments the fragrance of the altar,
that everyone may find them living memorials of you,
accessible to all,
yet more than other men.

Grant that they may contract from the Mass of today
a hunger and thirst for the Mass of the morrow,
that the sacred anticipation be their last thought at night
and your tender summons their first awareness in the morning;
that your priests,
filled with you and your good gifts,
may give largely to the rest of men who look to you.
Amen.
