A PRAYER FOR PRIESTS by Cardinal John O'Connor

Lord Jesus, we your people pray to You for our priests. You have given them to us for OUR needs. We pray for them in THEIR needs.

We know that You have made them priests in the likeness of your own priesthood. You have consecrated them, set them aside, annointed them, filled them with the Holy Spirit, appointed them to teach, to preach, to minister, to console, to forgive, and to feed us with Your Body and Blood.

Yet we know, too, that they are one with us and share our human weaknesses. We know too that they are tempted to sin and discouragement as are we, needing to be ministered to, as do we, to be consoled and forgiven, as do we. Indeed, we thank You for choosing them from among us, so that they understand us as we understand them, suffer with us and rejoice with us, worry with us and trust with us, share our beings, our lives, our faith.

We ask that You give them this day the gift You gave Your chosen ones on the way to Emmaus: Your presence in their hearts, Your holiness in their souls, Your joy in their spirits. And let them see You face to face in the breaking of the Eucharistic bread.

We pray to You, O Lord, through Mary the mother of all priests, for Your priests and for ours. Amen.

What does Phase One consist of?

1.) COMPLETE THE SITE PREP: pulling the electric, digging the well, building the well house, the grading, and the foundation for the Chapel.

2.) BUILD THE CHAPEL: Through the generosity of Mrs. Connie Vitale, we have the funds for the construction of the Chapel buildingl!

3.) BUILD TWO MODULAR HOMES ON SITE: Through past experience we know the importance of being on site during construction. Therefore, once these houses are built, all the Sisters will relocate to Tonopah. One house will serve as our living quarters, while the other house will serve as a place of retreat for priests. Once the monastery is completed, both houses will remain as permanent structures on the grounds - serving as retreat houses for priests and laity.
