Happy Presbyteral Anniversary Fr. Xuan!!
We thank the Lord for the gift of priestly vocation and ministry to our brother, REV. FR. BUI VAN XUAN, MSP, who celebrates his 3rd Presbyteral Ordination Anniversary today!
Tu es sacerdos in aeternum, Fr. Joseph!
---
Let us remember Fr. Joseph ' intentions and we pray for him as we say:
O Jesus, our great High Priest,
Hear my humble prayers on behalf of your priest,
FATHER BUI VAN XUAN, MSP.
Give him a deep faith,
a bright and firm hope,
and a burning love,
which will ever increase
in the course of his priestly life.
In his loneliness, comfort him;
In his sorrows, strengthen him;
In his frustrations, point out to him
that it is through suffering that the soul is purified;
and show him that he is needed by the Church,
he is needed by souls,
he is needed for the work of redemption.
O loving Mother Mary, Mother of Priests,
take to your heart your son who is close to you
because of his priestly ordination,
and because of the power which he has received
to carry on the work of Christ
in a world which needs him so much.
Be his comfort, be his joy, be his strength,
and especially help him
to live and to defend
the ideals of consecrated celibacy.
Amen.
