*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.”*
(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.*
 
PRAYER FOR A
PARTICULAR PRIEST.

Lord Jesus,
we often ask your priests to pray for us:
our intentions, our needs, our problems.
This time, I want to reverse the order
and pray for your priests, your servants,
and in particular I wish to pray for
Father T…
give him your Spirit’s blessing,
let him radiate in our milieu,
may he be a spiritual guide for us,
support him in his ministry,
nourish his spiritual life.
Thank you for giving him to us as a priest.
I pray you, risen Lord,
you who are our Eternal High Priest
and sit at the right hand of the Father.

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. *
 
PRAYER FOR THE
PROTECTION OF PRIESTS

Lord, heavenly Father,
keep our priests safe
from the pain and grief that sin brings,
from the dangers that they can’t see,
or the ones that they think they can risk
because of their experience (pride and carelessness).

Put up a supernatural barrier.

Protect them, Father, by your power!

Amen.
 
PRAYER FOR PRIESTS

Heavenly Father,
in your wisdom
you have called certain women and men
to a life of special consecration
so that in prayerful observance of a lifestyle of poverty,
chaste celibacy and obedience,
they might be witnesses to us
that as St. Paul says,
“our true citizenship is in heaven”.
Give them, Lord,
the grace of joy and perseverance
in their holy vocation.
We ask this through Christ, Our Lord.

Amen.
 
Eternal God , in whom mercy is endless,
and the treasury of compassion inexhastible ,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us ,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent , but with great confidence ,
submit ourselves to Your Holy Will ,
which is love and mercy itself . Amen

Mother of our Redeemer,
in this era dedicated to you,
with great joy we call you blessed.
You believed in the Word of God the Father
and declared yourself His handmaid,
and so, through you,
the Word became flesh,
and dwelt among us.
We salute you as Mother, our Mother,
the Mother of the Church.
With what great love
you must have watched over the infant Church
and what motherly solicitude
encouraged the apostles
as they committed themselves
to carry on the work of Your Divine Son on earth.
Make the Church ever
to be the sign and instrument
of intimate union with God.

To you, our Mother,
we entrust in a special way our Bishop
and the priests of our diocese.
To them has been given a special sharing
in the priesthood of Your Divine Son.
He has chosen them to be ministers
of His Word and Sacraments.
Ask Him to fill them with zeal,
to keep them faithful and joyful in His service,
conscious of the fact that they care
and so bring glory to the Father
and honor to the Church.

Holy Mother, increase the ranks of our priests
by inspiring our young people
to be more generous in their response to serve Jesus
in the priesthood and in religious life.

Sustain all of us, O Virgin Mary,
on our journey of faith
and obtain for us the grace of eternal salvation.

PRAYER FOR PRIESTS

O, Jesus, Eternal High Priest,
accept my fervent prayers
for Father T, your servant.
I lift up this priest in prayer to you,
and intercede for the Holy Catholic Priesthood.
Take my offering to use
as you will for one who is in need of prayer.

Dear Jesus, bless each priest with zeal for your Word.
Inspire him with a love of the Eucharist.
Instill in him humility;
give him courage to lead his flock,
and protect him always
from the temptations and snares of the devil.

O, Heavenly Father,
comfort him if he has grown discouraged.
Inflame his heart with love if he has grown tepid.

If there is a priest in purgatory,
bring him into Eternal Life
with my heartfelt supplication.

May your Sacred Heart renew,
strengthen and dwell in each priest
so that he may truly be a new creation in your image.

Gracious Mother Mary,
take this priest into your Immaculate Heart
and intercede for your chosen son.

Amen.
 
O Divine Love, we come before You to pray and intercede for our priests that they may become the living presence of Your love among us.

O Divine Love, enter and take complete possession of their hearts that all their affections may be toward charity.

O Divine Love, enter and be ever first in their minds that all their thoughts may be charitable.

O Divine Love, enlighten their intellects that they may always discern that which is most charitable.

O Divine Love, imbue all their words that they may always speak that which is most charitable and encouraging.

O Divine Love, inhabit their wills that they may always will and do that which is most charitable.

O Divine Love, animate all their senses and movements that they may only hear and see with Your senses and always respond with Your charity.

O Divine Love, penetrate to the very core of their souls, consume all their darkness, until You, O Divine Love, are able to radiate pure love through them to all they meet.

O Mary, Mother of Divine Love, pray for our priests.

With special intentions for Frs. B, R and J.
