Guadalupe23 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Check out the Youtube video on this website. I am so proud of those men who respond humbly to God's call. The words from the homily are amazing. May many more respond so courageously! God bless them!

laetitia crucis Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Thanks for the link, Guadalupe23! That video is beautiful. I think the [url="http://www.nypriest.com/"]Archdiocese of New York Office of Vocations[/url] has some of the absolute best priestly vocation promotions (materials? advertisements?). And with St. Patrick's Cathedral... ah, my heart! Just beautiful and so striking of the Divine! "The world needs heroes." -- That's one of my favorite slogans from their office of vocations. May God give us good, holy, faithful, heroic priests! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melporcristo Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 JMJT Does anyone know the prayer for Priests that has something like this in it, "We pray for our tepid priests ... for priests in distant lands ... for our lonely priests ... for the priest who baptized me..." Its a longer prayer, but my students and I prayed this and I found it in our diocese newspaper that said it was by St. Therese. But when I tried to find it online, I was unsuccessful.

AccountDeleted Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) There is a long prayer to priests that we used to pray in the Canadian Carmel. They were originally from Macau and this prayer was written by Cardinal King Pin-Mei... is that the one you mean? I can type it out if you want, but it is long. It starts All Powerful and Eternal God, through the merits of Your Son Jesus and through your love for Him, Have pity on the priests of Holy Church. In spite of their sulbime dignity they are weak like all human beings. and then it goes on with petitions... interested in it? [u][url="http://www.cardinalkungfoundation.org/PrayerRoom/Prayer4PriestsEng.htm"]I found this site which has the prayer and a biography of the Cardinal,[/url] [/u] Edited January 28, 2010 by nunsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Perhaps this one? (Which is probably my favorite prayer for priests.) [b]Daily Prayer For Priests (St. Therese of Lisieux)[/b] 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 tempted priests; for your lonely and desolate priests; For your young priests; for your dying priests; for the souls of your priests 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 assisted and who gave me Your Body and Blood in Holy Communion; the priests who taught and instructed me; all the priests to whom I am indebted in any other way (especially …). O Jesus, keep them all close to your heart, and bless them abundantly in time and in eternity. Amen Edit: [url="http://paxetbonum2.net/html/pfp.html#18"]Source[/url].

elizabeth09 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Prayer for Priests O Jesus, our great High Priest, Hear my humble prayers on behalf of your priest, Father [N]. Give him a deep faith a bright and firm hope and a burning love which will ever increase in the course of his priestly life. In his loneliness, comfort him In his sorrows, strengthen him In his frustrations, point out to him that it is through suffering that the soul is purified, and show him that he is needed by the Church, he is needed by souls, he is needed for the work of redemption. O loving Mother Mary, Mother of Priests, take to your heart your son who is close to you because of his priestly ordination, and because of the power which he has received to carry on the work of Christ in a world which needs him so much. Be his comfort, be his joy, be his strength, and especially help him to live and to defend the ideals of consecrated celibacy. Amen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
