Prayer For Priests

O Jesus, Eternal High Priest, dwell within (name a priest), act through him, and let your words be spoken in and by him. Fill his mind with your thoughts, and let your love be felt through his heart. Grant him your own attitudes and sentiments. Always teach, guide, and lead him. Enlighten and correct his thoughts and actions. Take possession of his soul; transform his entire essence and life to reflect you. Inspire him to a life of perpetual worship and gratitude; pray in and through him. May he abide in you and remain closely united with you forever. O Mary, Immaculate Conception, Mother of Jesus and all priests, intercede and pray for (name of priest).Amen.
