		World Day of Prayer for Priests 2009 Today is the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, since 2003 also the World Day of Prayer for Priests. O Jesus, I pray for Your faithful and fervent priests; for Your unfaithful and tepid priests; for Your priests labouring at home or abroad in distant mission fields; for Your tempted priests; for Your lonely and desolate priests; for Your young priests; for Your dying priests; for the souls of Your priests in purgatory. But above all I commend to You the priests dearest to me; the priest who baptized me; the priests who absolved me from my sins; the priests at whose Masses 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 other way. O Jesus, keep them all close to Your heart, and bless them abundantly in time and in eternity. Amen. (Source.) Lane Core Jr. CIW P — Fri. 06/19/09 08:43:29 AM Categorized as Religious.
