Prayer For A Holy Church And Priests

O my Jesus, I implore You on behalf of the entire Church: Bestow upon it love and illuminate it with Your Spirit, and empower the messages of the priests so that those with hardened hearts may be led to repentance and turn back to You, O Lord. Lord, bless us with holy priests; You Yourself sustain them in their holiness. O Divine and Supreme High Priest, may the might of Your mercy guide them always and shield them from the traps and snares of the evil one that are perpetually laid for the souls of priests. Let the force of Your mercy, O Lord, demolish and nullify anything that might compromise the holiness of priests, for with You, all things are possible. I ask You, Jesus, for a particular blessing and for guidance for the priests with whom I will confess throughout my life.Amen.
