Year of the Priest: a prayer |

One Minute Meditation
 Prayer for Holy Vocations to the Priesthood
Almighty God and Father:
We prayerfully ask You to give Your Church holy priests: men of charity, goodness and prayer, good shepherds like Your son, Jesus. Through the prompting of Your grace may they always realize that they are your chosen ones, called by name.
Comfort them more dearly when they are discouraged, lonely or greatly beset by the temptations of the evil one. Help them in their troubles to now that they are Your holy anointed ones, that with You they can do all things.
We ask these favors for Your priests in the world, through Your Son, Jesus Christ, the first and eternal priests. Amen.
