Year for Priests
Year of the Priest Has Begun
In this Year of the Priest let us particularly remember these men of God, our priests, who have dedicated their lives to serve us: that there be more of them, and that they be holy. Let us pray that they value and live faithfully their commitment to celibacy for the sake of God’s Kingdom, thus following the path of Christ the High Priest himself and his apostles. Never stop praying for our priests. In an age of hedonism and materialism, the witness of their life is crucial, not only for the Catholic Church, but for the entire world.
