PRAYER FOR OUR PASTOR

Lord Jesus, Eternal High Priest, we worship you, our Head.

We thank you for our Pastor, who shares in Your one Priesthood,

who acts in Your stead and who is an instrument of bringing Your presence to us.

Strengthen him, Lord, in times of trial, be his consolation

in times of loneliness, and give him the joy of seeing the fruits of his labors.

We pray for him and assist him as we are able,

for you bring many graces and blessings to us through him.

AMEN.
