DAY 1

MORNING PRAYER

Heavenly Father,

On this World Day of Prayer for the Sanctification of Priests,

we humbly come before you, interceding for our priests.

Pour out your abundant grace upon them,

renewing their hearts and empowering them for their sacred ministry. 

Grant them unwavering faith,

that they may be steadfast in their commitment to You and the Church.

May their lives be a living testimony to the beauty

and transformative power of your grace.

We ask this through the intercession of Mary,

our Mother and the Mother of all priests. 

Amen
