His life: an Advent...

"The life of a priest is an Advent

 bringing forth the Incarnation of souls." 

- St Elizabeth of the Trinity

 

PRAYER FOR HOLY 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 to be prayerful in meditations,
efficacious in preaching,
and zealous in the daily offering of
the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
Help them administer the sacraments with joy.

Amen 

Let us generously remember our priests in daily prayer -

especially in this holy Advent season.
These special days are filled with many extra duties.

has called upon us to mimic God's giving, 
by grace, through faith, 

and this is not of ourselves."
