To be holy, zealous, chaste. Amen.


O my priest, how can you dare to make an offering of Me
truly and totally complete, if you haven't first made
the offering of yourself, totally complete. - Mgr Vladimir Ghika

 

Prayer for Priests
(St Charles Borromeo)

O holy Mother of God, pray for the priests your Son
has chosen to serve the Church.  Help them, by your intercession,
to be holy, zealous and chaste.

Make them models of virtue in the service of God's people.

Help them be pious in meditation,  efficacious in preaching,
and zealous in the daily offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. 
Help them administer the sacraments with joy.  Amen.


Joyously remembering the Ordination of
Fr Spencer J Howe - 25 May 2013
and in gratitude for all men Our Lord has called to the altar as priests.



 MEMORIAL DAY - May 25
Eternal remembrance and gratitude for the innumerable, generous, courageous,
self-sacrificing and heroic acts of service – seen and unseen.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord.
And let perpetual light shine upon them.
May their souls and the souls of all of the faithful departed
through the mercy of God rest in peace. AMEN
