Faithfulness of Christ,
faithfulness of priests
O Jesus our Great High Priest
Hear our humble pray on behalf of our priest,
S: Fr David Barry M:Fr John Batthula
T: Fr Anthony Baxter W: Fr Neil Bayliss
Th: Fr David Bazen F: Fr George Bennett
S: Fr John Bentley
Give him a deep faith a bright and firm hope and a burning love which will ever increase
in the course of his priestly life. In his loneliness, comfort him In his sorrows,
strengthen him In his frustrations, point out to him that it is through suffering
that the soul is purified, and show him that he is needed by the Church, he is needed
by souls, he is needed for the work of redemption.
0 loving Mother Mary, Mother of Priests, take to your heart your son who is close to you because of his priestly ordination, and because of the power which he has received to carry on the work of Christ in a world which needs him so much. Be his comfort, be his joy, be his strength, and especially help him to live and to defend the ideals of consecrated celibacy. Amen.
+John Joseph, Cardinal Carberry (d.1998)
