PRAYER FOR PRIESTS
Heavenly Father,
We thank you for the gift of the priesthood. And, we particularly thank you for the priests here in the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux.
We ask that you draw them ever closer to the Sacred Heart of Your Son Jesus. And, that they would experience the depth of communion with you that you long for.
Grant them stillness Lord, that they might perceive your presence. Heighten their spiritual senses that they might see and hear you ever more clearly and feel you ever more deeply.
Remind them of their call. Remind them of all that you have promised them and they promised you on the sacred day of their ordination.
We ask for miracles of renewal in their priestly vocation, Lord. Renew them in your love and strengthen their resolve to love and serve you.
Strengthen their priestly fraternity, Lord, and strengthen the bond between the priests and the Laity. That together Lord, we all might be ONE as you are One.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen+
Priests Intercessory Prayer Team
Our priests need your prayerful support.
Pray for our priests for a week: We humbly ask that you might consider stopping once a day for a week and say a prayer for our priests (a heartfelt prayer or a Hail Mary, etc).
Pray for a priest all year: Our Priests Intercessory Prayer Team allows you to commit to praying for a priest for an entire year. If you enroll to be a Priests Intercessor, you will be assigned a priest and if you desire, we will send you occasional reminders or support to help you along in this important ministry. You will be asked to commit to some form of daily prayer for that priest over the coming year. This might include some suggestions as listed below or some other way you would like to pray.
