**“God our father, please send us holy priests, all for the sacred and eucharistic heart of Jesus. All for the sorrowful and immaculate heart of Mary, all in union with St. Joseph.” **

A prayer for Priests taken from the Prayers For All Occasions Prayer Book
Heavenly Father, pour out Your grace on the priests You have made. Let them remember that in performing their tasks they are never alone. Relying on Your almighty power and believing in Christ Who called them to share in his priesthood, may they devote themselves to their ministry with complete trust, knowing that You can intensify in them the ability to love. Let them also be mindful that they have as partners their brothers in the priesthood and indeed the faithful of the entire world. For they cooperate in carrying out the saving plan of Christ, which is brought to fulfillment only by degrees, through the collaboration of many ministries in the building up of Christ’s Body until the full measure of His manhood is achieved. Amen.![]()
