Today we celebrate Fr John’s 7th anniversary as a priest. United with him, let’s say this prayer:
O God, how good and generous You are for pouring out so many blessings on Your people through the
priesthood of Fr John. We ask you to continue to bless Fr John as he ministers to us each day.
Make us more and more grateful for the precious gift of Your priests, whose open hearts and open hands bring
us the gift of Jesus Your Son. May their generosity be a light that inspires us to say “Yes” to Your call to love and
serve, each according to the plan You have for our lives. We make this prayer to You in the name of Jesus the
Lord. Amen.
