Prayer For Priests # 33
Heavenly Father,
in your wisdom
you have called certain women and men
to a life of special consecration
so that in prayerful observance of a lifestyle of poverty,
chaste celibacy and obedience,
they might be witnesses to us
that as Saint Paul says,
"our true citizenship is in heaven".
Give them, Lord,
the grace of joy and perseverance
in their holy vocation.
We ask this through Christ, Our Lord.
Amen.
