Day 3: Priest of God's altar

Main post image

Intention

That we are blessed with more vocations to the priesthood.


From his writing...

Had Angels been your priests, my bethren, they could not have condoled with you, sympathised with you,  have had compassion on you, felt tenderly for you,  and made allowances for you, as we can; they could not have been your patterns and guides, and have led you on from your own selves into a new life, as they can who come from the midst of you. 


Prayer

Novena Prayer

O God our heavenly Father, we offer You heartfelt thanks for the life and holiness of John Henry Newman. In him You give us an inspiring example of priest and teacher, heroic and humble in his labour for the salvation of souls and the pursuit of holiness. Through his intercession we ask You to lead us by the kindly light of the Holy Spirit, and so grant us peace and joy, in the one fold of the Redeemer. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Thank you! 91 people prayed

Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer everyone. Col 4:6
