    Prayer for Newly Ordained Priests

    O Jesus, our great High Priest, hear our humble prayers on behalf of your priests,
    Father ___. Give them a deep faith, a bright and firm hope, and a burning love which will
    ever increase in the course of their priestly lives.

    In their loneliness, comfort them; in their sorrows, strengthen them; in their frustrations,
    point out to them that it is through suffering that the soul is purified. Show them that they
    are needed by the Church, they are needed by souls, they are needed for the work of
    redemption.

    O loving Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Priests, take to your heart your sons who are
    close to you because of their priestly ordinations, and because of the power which they
    have received to carry on the work of Christ in a world which needs them so much. Be
    their comfort, be their joy, be their strength, and especially help them to live and to defend
    the ideals of consecrated celibacy.

    Amen.

    PRAYER FOR THE 2018 YEAR OF THE CLERGY AND


    CONSECRATED PERSONS
    O God Most Loving Father,
    with your priests and those whoconsecrated their lives to you,
    may we be fully and ever united to Christ.
    May they be our constant guides in this oneness with you
    through prayer, the Eucharist and personal conversion.

    We have sinned and we have failed in so many ways.


    There are many brothers and sisters in our midst who continue to suffer.
    They hunger for truth and justice, for charity and solidarity.
    We pray that we may become bearers of the Gospel
    that transforms lives as we reach out to our suffering brethren.
    We pray that the Gospel may urge us to action,
    to witness to charity and compassionate service.

    Together may we all be renewed and learn how to be


    Servant-Leaders for the Gospel of Christ.
    Like him who rose from the table to wash the disciples’ feet,
    may we too rise up to the challenge to take care
    of the poor and the weak, to be always approachable
    rather than untouchable, and “to imbibe the odor of the sheep.”
    May our young people who are discerning the gentle call
    of the Lord to serve, be filled with courage and determination
    to follow you in service with humility and love.
    With Mary, Star of the New Evangelization,
    may we continue to be instruments of the Gospel
    in our country and in the world. Amen.
