A SPECIAL PRAYER FOR A PRIEST
O Jesus, Eternal Priest, keep Fr. David Hewko Thy Priest, within the shelter of Thy Sacred Heart, where none may touch him.
Keep unstained his anointed hands, which daily hold Thy Sacred Body.
Keep unsullied the lips purpled with Thy Precious Blood.
Keep pure and unearthly a heart sealed with the sublime mark of Thy glorious Priesthood.
Let Thy holy love surround him and shield him from the world's contagion.
Bless his labours with abundant fruit, and may they to whom he has ministered, be here below,
his joy and consolation, and in heaven, his beautiful and everlasting crown. Amen.
O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee!
A happy and blessed Anniversary to you Father Hewko! Deo gratias!
