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 an excellent example to Priests & all,
Please pray to the Lord JESUS,
for Holy prayer and works in Priest led/aide Knights of Columbus,
Good Counsel, Human Life International, Paternal & Maternal Homes,
Priests For Life, Missionaries of The Poor, Missionaries of Charity,
Ecumenical Personhood USA and 40 Days For Life & Protectors of
God’s Precious Infants, and many more.
as
you always pray for the proclaiming of the Gospel helping the poor.
May John Cardinal O’Connor’s verbal 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.

*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
 
Almighty God,
look upon the face of Him who is the eternal High Priest,
and have compassion on Your priests in today’s world.
Remember that they are but weak and frail human beings.
Stir up in them the grace of their vocation.
Keep them close to You lest the enemy prevail against them,
so that they may never do anything
in the slightest degree unworthy of their sublime vocation.

O Jesus, I pray for Your faithful and fervent priests,
for the unfaithful and tepid ones;
for those laboring at home and abroad
in distant mission fields;
for those who are tempted;
for those who are lonely and desolate;
for those who are in purgatory.

But, above all,
I recommend to You the priests dearest to me;
the priest who baptized me;
the priests who absolved me from my sins;
the priests who instructed me or helped me by their encouragement.
I pray devoutly for all the priests
to whom I am indebted in any other way,
in particular for Father T.
O Jesus, keep them all close to Your heart
and bless them abundantly in time and in eternity.

Amen.

O Mary, Queen of the clergy,
pray for us;
obtain for us a number of holy priests.

O Jesus, by your most loving heart,
I implore you to inflame with zeal
for your love and glory
all the priests of the world,
all missionaries
and those whose office it is to preach your word,
that on fire with holy zeal,
they may snatch souls from the devil
and lead them into the shelter of your Heart,
where forever they may glorify you.
I especially remember those priests
who have absolved me of my sins
in the Sacrament of Confession,
and those who have given me
Your Body, Blood, Soul
and Divinity as nourishment for my soul
in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist.

Amen.
 
A Prayer for Priests
By St. Therese of Lisieux

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!

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

Holy Thursday’s Prayer for Priests and Deacons**

Beloved Lord, grace your priests and deacons with endurance in these holy days filled with rituals and prayers. Guide them, strengthen them, uphold them through the work they must do in honor to your son Jesus, in honor to his Passion, in honor to all of us who in our suffering remember the sufferings of the Christ. We pray the consecrated hearts and hands of your priests do not grow weary through these blessed days through Easter. In Jesus name and with Mother Mary hear our prayers of perseverance for our priests and deacons. 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. *
