Prayer Resources

There are many resources and organizations that help foster prayer for priests. Check out just a few below.

"I invite you to pray for priests, so that through your prayer the Lord might strengthen their vocation, comfort them in their ministry, and help them always be joyful ministers of the Gospel for all people."

- Pope Francis

Foundation of Prayer for Priests

Foundation of Prayer for Priests
The Foundation of Prayer for Priests is a private association of the faithful according to the Church's canons 215; 298-299 §§1-2. Founded in 2013 with encouragement of Rome's Congregation for the Clergy, they exist to build up the Body of Christ. Members include clergy and lay faithful in over twenty countries. This website's resources include downloads of prayers, holy hours, and stations of the cross that facilitate prayers for priests.

Seven Sisters Apostolate

Seven Sisters Apostolate
The Seven Sisters Apostolate is a call to strengthen the Church by ensuring that a Holy Hour is prayed each day of the week for the sole intention of a specific priest or bishop—a “holy wasting” (cf. Mt. 26:10) or lavishing of prayer for his deeper conformity to Christ.

Find out more about what we do here. If you have additional questions, or would like information about forming a group for your parish pastor or associate, a priest serving in a non-parish setting, a retired priest, or a bishop, please contact Holly Dodd to be officially recognized as members of this apostolate.

Gracious and loving God, we thank you for the gift of our priests.
Through them, we experience your presence in the sacraments.

Help our priests to be strong in their vocation.
Set their souls on fire with love for your people.

Grant them the wisdom, understanding, and strength they need to follow in the footsteps of Jesus.
Inspire them with the vision of your Kingdom.

Give them the words they need to spread the Gospel.
Allow them to experience joy in their ministry.

Help them to become instruments of your divine grace.

We ask this through Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns as our Eternal Priest.

Amen.

(from the USCCB)

Saint John Vianney, patron saint of priests,

Pray for our priests!
