PRAYER FOR PRIESTS

“Eternal Father, we lift up to You these and all the priests of the world. Sanctify them. Heal and guide them. Mold them into the likeness of Your Son, Jesus Christ, the Eter- nal High Priest. May their lives be pleasing to You. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen

May 27 —Rev. Richard Broussard May 28 —Msgr. Ronald Broussard May 29 —Rev. Theodore Broussard May 30 —Rev. Keenan Brown May 31 —Rev. Wilbur “Sonny” Brown June 1 —Pope Francis June 2 —Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI June 3 —Bishop J. Douglas Deshotel

“For every high priest taken from among men is appointed on behalf of men in things pertaining to God, in order to offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins.” (Hb. 5:1)

Then Jesus approached and said to them, "All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."

- Mt 28:18-19
