WORDING INSIDE THE CARD
Among the vast populations of earth, none but those ordained priests of Jesus Christ can offer up the Sacred Mysteries.
We pack a tremendous power in our anointed hands. “Tremendous” is the right word for it. No wonder the angels in heaven, the faithful on earth, and souls in purgatory salute us.
Angels look with awe on our anointed hands. They swarm about us at the altar, watching intently every celestial thing we do there.
Privileged men! We priests live with the Lord. We are constantly handling His adorable Self at the altar, the Communion table, and the sickbed. All our priestly labours are in one way or another connected with the Holy Eucharist. When we instruct children or converts, we prepare new human tabernacles for the Lord. When we assist at marriage we bless a union from which children will come future human dwellings for the Saviour.

This is an invitation to support Our Lady’s special sons: Catholic priests.
Without priests, there is no Mass, and without the Eucharist, we lose the profound presence of Jesus among us here on earth. Our priests play a crucial role in maintaining this sacred connection, and they need our prayers now more than ever. As Our Lady’s special sons, they carry a unique responsibility in their vocation, standing as the keepers of the Eucharist, entrusted with the mystery of Christ’s body and blood.
By offering Rosaries and dedicating time from our lives, we can spiritually support them. Each prayer draws upon the life of Christ, applying its grace to their lives and ministry.
The priest, as *alter Christus*—another Christ—bears the weight of leading the faithful in the sacred mysteries. Our prayers, especially through the Rosary, lift them up in their mission and strengthen their service to the church.
