“We pray for those poor lost priests who have broken the oath of their holy ordination and have become unfaithful to their exalted calling. Enlighten their minds and strengthen their wills, that they may turn away from all sin and error and come back to Thy holy altar and to Thy people.”
Novena Prayer to the Sacred Heart for Priests
Remember, O most loving Heart of Jesus,
that they for whom I pray are those for whom You prayed so earnestly the
night before Your death. These are they to whom You look to continue
with You in Your sorrows when others forsake You, who share Your griefs
and have inherited your persecutions, according to Your word: That the
servant is not greater than his Lord.
Remember, O Heart of
Jesus, that they are the objects of the worldʼs hatred and Satanʼs
deadliest snares. Keep them then, 0 Jesus, in the safe citadel of Your
Sacred Heart and there let them be sanctified in truth.
May they
be one with you and one among themselves, and grant that multitudes may
be brought through their word to believe in You and love You. Amen.
Novena
to the Sacred Heart
O most holy Heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore Thee, I
love Thee and with a lively sorrow for my sins, I offer Thee this poor
heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to Thy
will. Grant, good Jesus, that I may live in Thee and for Thee. Protect
me in the midst of danger; comfort me in my afflictions; give me health
of body, assistance in my temporal needs, Thy blessing on all that I
do, and the grace of a holy death. Within Thy Heart I place my every
care. In every need let me come to Thee with humble trust saying, Heart
of Jesus help me.
