Prayer for the Priesthood

O Jesus! Protect, preserve, and sanctify Thy priesthood. Preserve to childhood the priest, the guardian, and friend of its innocence. Preserve him to youth, whose guide and counselor he is; to the poor, of whom he is the providence; to the afflicted, whose consoler he is. Preserve him a father to the dying, whose last agony is illumined through him, by the divine light of faith and hope. Sustain and console, O Jesus, the Holy Father, the earthly head of Thy Church, whose life is so embittered with the ingratitude of his children; protect him and deliver him from his enemies. We believe and know truly that Thy Church cannot perish and that the priesthood is immortal. Hasten, then, O divine Lord, the coming of Thy kingdom, that Thou mayest reign, conquer, and overcome.

Adveniat regnum tuum!

“O Jesus! Give to us holy Priests –

Priests of fire.”

 

Keep the Beat…

The Kinkora Community Centre has recently been equipped with an emergency defibulator. This has been installed at no cost by the Perth County Emergency Medical Services (EMS). There is a 4 hour training course available to any community members that are interested, also at no cost. We will have a sign-up sheet available after Mass on June 28th as well as at the Community Appreciation Day. Please sign up if you are interested and we will try to arrange courses at times that will be suitable for all. Call Tom McLaughlin at 519-393-5695 for more information.
