Saint Therese of Lisieux prayer for priests…

Posted on by Standard Reply

therese1 HIAO 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 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 priest who absolved me from my sins;

the priest at whose Mass 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 way.

Jesus, keep them all close to Your heart,

and bless them abundantly in time and in eternity. Amen.
