"They (priests) are My anointed ones, and I call them My Christs, because I have given them the office of administering Me to you, and have placed them like fragrant flowers in the mystical body of the holy Church. The angel himself has no such dignity, for I have given it to those men whom I have chosen for My ministers, and whom I have appointed as earthly angels in this life." -- St. Catherine de Siena, Dialogue
Prayer for Priests (St. Catherine of Siena)
Sanctify to Thyself, [Father,] I beseech
You, direct the hearts and wills of the servants of Your Bride, the
Holy Church, unto Yourself so that they may follow the poor, bleeding,
humble, and gentle Lamb of God on the way of the Cross.
Make them
angels in the shape of men; for after all, they have to administer and
distribute the Body and Blood of Your Only Begotten Son! Amen.
