A PRAYER FOR PRIESTS

Lord Jesus, we your people pray to You for our priests. You have given them to us for our needs. We pray for them in their needs. We know that you have made them priests in the likeness of your own priesthood. You have consecrated them set them aside, anointed the, filled them with the Holy Spirit, appointed them to teach, to preach, to minister, to console, to forgive, to feed us with your Body and your Blood. Yet, we know, too, that they are one with us an share our human weaknesses. We know that they are tempted sin and discouragement as are we, needing to be ministered to, as do we, to be consoled and forgiven, as do we. Indeed, we thank you for choosing them from among us, so that they understand us as we understand them, love us as we love them, suffer with us and rejoice with us, worry with us and trust with us, share our beings, our lives, our faith. We ask that you give them this day the gift you gave your chosen ones on the way to Emmaus: Your presence in their hearts, your holiness in their souls, your joy in their spirits. And let them see You face-to-face in the breaking of the Eucharistic bread. We pray to you, O Lord, through Mary, the Mother of all priests, for our priests and for ours. Amen. +John Cardinal O’Connor – Emmaus Spirituality Program for Priests 1995-1996
