O holy Apostles, Peter and Paul, I choose you this day and forever to be my special patrons and advocates; thee, Saint Peter, Prince of the Apostles, because thou art the Rock, upon which Almighty God hath built His Church; thee, Saint Paul, because thou wast fore-chosen by God as the Vessel of election and the Preacher of truth in the whole world. Obtain for me, I pray you, lively faith, firm hope, and burning love; complete detachment from myself, contempt of the world, patience in adversity, humility in prosperity, attention in prayer, purity of heart, a right intention in all my works, diligence in fulfilling the duties of my state of life, constancy in my resolutions, resignation to the will of God and perseverance in the grace of God even unto death; that so, by means of your intercession and your glorious merits, I may be able to overcome the temptations of the world, the flesh and the devil, and may be made worthy to appear before the chief and eternal Shepherd of souls, Jesus Christ, Who with the Father and the Holy Ghost liveth and reigneth for endless ages, to enjoy His presence and love Him forever. Amen.
Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be.
V. Thou shalt make them princes over all the earth.
R. They shall be mindful of Thy name, O Lord.
Let us pray:
O God, Whose right hand raised up blessed Peter, when he walked upon the water and began to sink, and thrice delivered his fellow-Apostle Paul from the depths of the sea, when he suffered shipwreck: graciously hear us and grant, by the merits of them both, that we also may attain unto everlasting glory: Who livest and reignest world without end. Amen
(An Indulgence of 500 days.)
SPIRITUAL EXERCISE:
We pray for all Catholic Priests especially those that are defrocked and those not in communion with the church.
Lord, You called these Your servants to the sacred priesthood giving them the sublime power to offer the eternal sacrifice, to bring the body and blood of Your son Jesus down upon the altar and to absolve the sins of men in Your holy name. Keep Your Catholic priests holy, pure and faithful. May You be pleased always with their sacrifice.
For all Your priests not in communion with the Church; Heavenly Father; You who is rich in mercy, who does not desire the death of a sinner but his repentance. Forgive them Lord, May their souls not be lost. Amen
Saints Peter and Paul pray for all Catholic priests especially those not in communion with the Church
Amen🙏🏼.
