Divine Savior Jesus Christ, Thou are
the Good Shepherd who gives His life for His sheep. Oh, be in a very
special way the Good Shepherd of those poor lost priests who are also
appointed by Thee to be leaders of Thy people, but who have broken the
oath of their holy ordination and have become unfaithful to their exalted
calling. Bestow upon these poorest of the poor the very fullness of that
pastoral solicitude with which Thou dost so faithfully seek the sheep that
are lost! Touch their hearts with the irresistible ray of grace which
emanates from Thine all-merciful love!
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. Amen
