Enjoying the ride of Priesthood

Thank you for your selfless devotion to

the Lord and to His Church.
Congratulations on your silver jubilee of
priestly ordination!
 Prayer for Priests
St. John Vianney

God, please give to your Church today

many more priests after your own heart.
May they be representatives of Christ the
Good Shepherd.
May they wholeheartedly devote
themselves to prayer and penance;
be examples of humility and poverty;
shining models of holiness;
tireless and powerful preachers of the
Word of God;
zealous dispensers of your grace in the
sacraments.
May their loving devotion to Your Son,
Jesus in the Eucharist,
and to Mary His Mother,
Be the twin fountains of fruitfulness for
their ministry.
Amen.
