"Let us celebrate this Jubilee Year for the Priests! You have given yourself to God and served Him faithfully through the flock that has been entrusted to your care. You have shared with us your time and energy through confession, mass, counseling and encounters. You have been part of our spiritual life. With gratitude and love in our hearts for all your services and sacrifices, we wish to recognize your presence in the celebration of Priests’ Day".
"Dear Lord, we pray that the Blessed Mother wrap her mantle around your priests and through her intercession strengthen them for their ministry. We pray that Mary will guide your priests to follow her own words, "Do whatever He tells you" (Jn. 2:5). May your priests have the heart of St. Joseph, Mary’s most chaste spouse. May the Blessed Mother’s own pierced heart inspire them to embrace all who suffer at the foot of the cross. May your priests be holy, filled with the fire of your love seeking nothing but your greater glory and the salvation of souls. Amen."
