Adopt a PriestConsider adopting a priest ... in prayer.Pope Benedict XVI declared this "The Year for Priests" beginningon the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This is how it works:  
An individual or a family or a religious order may choose a
Diocesan priest by name to pray for daily, throughout this year of
dedication. The priest may be someone you know personally or someone you have never met.Your prayer may be just a simple "Hail Mary", a Rosary, a Divine Chaplet, a visit to a Church or Adoration Chapel, or a remembrance at Daily Mass. You choose what is best for you. Families could pray for their adopted priest (one for the whole family or one for each family member), as part of your prayers at meal time. If you want your priest to know you are in the project, you may contact the priest just to encourage him. He may in turn, pray for you in a special way. What a power house this will be! May Our Lady, Mother of the Church, bless you with Her Loving Son for remembering "Her Priest Sons" in prayer. If you have an extra minute, please say one "Hail Mary" for all priests throughout the world. God love you for helping to change the world and building the Kingdom of Heaven.
