Prayer: LEADER: Throughout the years, LordJesus,
a lot of people showed their hatred towards your
Eucharistic presence. Sacrileges done inside and
outside the Church offended you so much. Many
were led astray due to their false interpretations
of the Sacrament which you alone provide. This
gave much offense to your Eucharistic Presence,
dear Lord.

Reflection… (Kneel)
Prayer:
LEADER: Lord Jesus, you are the eternal High
Priest. In your sacrifice in Calvary, you gave a
perfect sacrifice which is sufficient for every time
and place. Through the hands of the priest, you
continuously give yourself to us, and at the same
time offer yourself to the Father.
We now pray and offer to you all your priests
who tirelessly give us your Body and Blood in
every Mass we attend. Unworthy as they may be,
keep them pure and worthy in mind, word and
deed for them to really celebrate the Sacrament
of Love in persona Christi Capitis. Deliver them
from every possible temptation, and may they
and their ministry inspire others to live a holy and
pure life as you did here on Earth. Amen.
