Prayer for Pittsburgh Seminarians
Dearest Heavenly Father, the Church founded upon the faith of the apostles, the blood of the holy martyrs and the witness of the saints, leads all believers from our earthly pilgrimage to our heavenly home.
Through the Priesthood of your Son, the faithful receive and participate in the mysteries of salvation by Word and Sacrament. You call some men to serve the Church as priests to be the stewards and servants of the Gospel.
We pray for the seminarians of Pittsburgh who, by a great act of faith, are discerning your Providential Call to the Priesthood of Jesus Christ. May they be open to your will and respond graciously and generously to the needs of the Church.
May our diocesan family continue to receive your blessings as we advance the cause of the Gospel and manifest your Kingdom in all we say and do.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen. |
