Lord, help Your elect to draw near to the Priests whom You have sent to perpetuate the faith. It is only through their hands that Christ is made present to us in the Eucharist. Cause us to reflect on the miracle and beauty of this Sacrament, which occurs in our presence. Graciously allow us to speak words of thanksgiving to them for their willing hearts, which are a gift of love from You. You have taught us, through Sacred Scripture, that the “worker deserves his wage” (Matthew 10:10), so let us be a part of Your Divine Providence to them in return for all that we have received from them. Most of all, Father, we praise and bless Your Holy Name for the hope that is contained within Your promises, and the goodness we find in the Church which Your Son established for our good. Grant this through the same Risen Lord Jesus Christ, Who lives and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, One God for ever and ever. Amen! Alleluia!

Prayer for Priests

Almighty Father, grant to these servants of Yours the dignity
of the priesthood. Renew within them the Spirit of holiness.
As co-workers with the order of bishops may they be faithful
to the ministry that they receive from You, Lord God, and be
to others a model of right conduct.

May they be faithful in spreading the good news, so that the
words of the Gospel may reach the ends of the earth, and the
family of nations, made one in Christ, may become God’s one,
holy people.

Amen.

Gracious and loving Lord, guide and strengthen Your servant Priests on earth. Grant them favor, based upon the fervent prayers of their perfected brother Priests who reside in Your Kingdom. May our prayers be joined with theirs to ensure that evil never prevails against the Church which Your Son established for all time. Hear the prayers which we make in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen! Alleluia!

Prayer for Priests

Almighty God, look upon the face of Jesus who is the eternal High Priest, and have compassion on Your priests in today‘s world. They are but weak and frail human beings. Stir up in them the grace of their vocation. Keep them close to You so the enemy may not prevail against them, so that they may never do anything in the slightest degree unworthy of their sublime vocation.

O Jesus, I pray You to help 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 lonely and desolate; for those who are young; for those who are dying; and 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 at whose Masses I have assisted and who gave me Your body and blood in Holy Communion; the priests who instructed me or helped me by their encouragement. I pray devoutly for all the priests to who 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

O Mary, Queen of the Clergy, pray for us; obtain for us many and holy priests.
 
Love and commitment

Heavenly Father, for Jesus’ sake You look on Your priest and love him more than human mind can conceive! Through Your Spirit, please transmute his humanity through Your love and unite him with You! Make Your love to be his love, Your thoughts to be his thoughts, Your truth to be his truth, Your ways to be his ways, Your strength to be his strength.

Transform him into a fountain of Your goodness and love, a source of salvation to the whole human spirit of Your people. Fill him with loving-kindness, with peace and faith to share with others.

Ever deepen his contemplation and comprehension of You, and commensurately, his love and service. Intensify his perception and understanding of other human beings.
Deepen his ability to communicate Your gospel to them, and commensurately, his love and service. Expand in him the gift of opening others’ hearts and minds, so that they become receptive to Your love and teachings. Let others be thus inspired to seek God, rather than concepts of God.

Wherever he goes, whatever he does, whatever he says or preaches, endow Your priest with grace and wisdom to inspire others to love and faith. Empower him to inflame others’ complacency into genuine and faithful practice of Your greatest commandment, of love for You above all and others as self!

Almighty God, make him the saint You mean him to be.
With thanksgiving, I offer him to Your merciful love!

Father in Heaven, reassure Your priests of Your constant love and support as they struggle against a world which is increasingly hostile to them. May Your Holy Spirit fill them with the gift of fortitude, enabling them to withstand the spiritual assaults of the evil one. Graciously fill them with hope which will sustain them in their vocations. Hear our fervent prayer that the love which they reveal will be returned to them by the faithful, whom they serve. Grant this through our risen Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who lives and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, One God for ever and ever. Amen! Alleluia!
