A Prayer For Priests

Divine Savior Jesus Christ, you have entrusted the entire mission of redemption, the well-being, and salvation of humanity to priests as your representatives, through the hands of your most blessed Mother. For the sanctification of priests and those aspiring to the priesthood, I dedicate this day completely, encompassing all its prayers, efforts, joys, sacrifices, and griefs. Grant us truly holy priests who, ignited by the fervor of your divine love, desire solely your greater glory and the salvation of our souls. And you, Mary, our beloved Mother of priests, safeguard all priests amid the challenges of their sacred calling, and with the tender care of a Mother, guide back to the Good Shepherd those priests who have strayed from their noble vocation.
