142 God works through the hands of a Priest

For College Catholics

Today I share a simple experience that reminded me how God can work at any time and unexpectedly through the hands of a Priest. Some weeks ago I attended SEEK, a conference with some 20,000 college students in attendance, and some 450 priests helping with confessions. I hope this story is an occasion to reinvigorate the appreciation of the Holy Priesthood of Jesus Christ, to pray more fervently for all priests, that our Lord may give us the grace to persevere always in a virtuous and holy way of life… Let us pray as well that our Lord may continue to call young men to the priesthood and that he may give them the courage and the strength to say NO to the attractions of the world and be willing to sacrifice it all for Jesus Christ and for the salvation of souls.
