From Opus Bono Sacerdotii: THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!!!

Work for the Good of the Priesthood

Deacon

We have a total of $8,235 of new requests from priests who are desperately in need of our financial help right now, but we do not have ANY more money to help these poor priests. As treasurer, it is killing me that I have to say no to them, especially since I know how truly needy these priests are. Some of them are literally crying on the phone to us:

Father John is 77 and needs money for back rent, before he is kicked out. Father Matt is 74 and way behind on utilities because he has been laid up from back surgery and not able to work. Father David is 72 years old and was just released from his work situation because his arthritis is so bad that he can no longer stand for eight hours at the local hardware store. He needs help paying rent and food until he can find another job. These are just three of several who have contacted us in the last two weeks.

From the bottom of my heart, and out of love for all the priests who have done so much for you in your life, I plead to you for help for these poor priests. They need your help right now. Any amount would be greatly appreciated by them!

So, please, please consider making your most generous gift for them right now on-line at www.opusbono.org.

Or, mail your tax-deductible donation check to Opus Bono Sacerdotii, PO Box 663, Oxford, MI 48371.

If you prefer to donate by credit card over the phone, please call our offices at (313) 937-6305 USA.

I don't know how else to say it, but that the need is so desperately urgent right now!

Thank you so much for your prayers and generous, life-giving support for these poor priests!

Gratefully and with many prayers on your behalf,

Pete

Dear Lord, we pray that the Blessed Mother wrap her mantle around your priests and through her intercession strengthen them for their ministry.

We pray that Mary will guide your priests to follow her own words, "Do whatever He tells you (John 2:5).

May your priests have the heart of St. Joseph, Mary's most chaste spouse.

May the Blessed Mother's own pierced heart inspire them to embrace all who suffer at the foot of the cross.

May your priests be holy,
filled with the fire of your love
seeking nothing but your greater glory
and the salvation of souls. Amen.
Saint John Vianney, pray for us.

Quotes from 'The Glories of Mary':

‘I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head.’

(Gen. 3:15)

“Since the devil is the head of original sin, this head it was that Mary crushed: for sin never had any entry into the soul of this Blessed Virgin, which was consequently free from all stain.”

Saint Augustine

PSALM 71 SPEAKS TO MY HEART

Forsake Me Not When My Strength Is Spent

In you, O Lord, do I take refuge;
let me never be put to shame!
In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me;
incline your ear to me, and save me!

Be to me a rock of refuge,
to which I may continually come;
you have given the command to save me,
for you are my rock and my fortress.

Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked,
from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.
For you, O Lord, are my hope,
my trust, O Lord, from my youth.
Upon you I have leaned from before my birth;
you are he who took me from my mother's womb.
My praise is continually of you.

I have been as a portent to many,
but you are my strong refuge.
My mouth is filled with your praise,
and with your glory all the day.
Do not cast me off in the time of old age;
forsake me not when my strength is spent.

For my enemies speak concerning me;
those who watch for my life consult together
and say, “God has forsaken him;
pursue and seize him,
for there is none to deliver him.”

O God, be not far from me;
O my God, make haste to help me!
May my accusers be put to shame and consumed;
with scorn and disgrace may they be covered
who seek my hurt.

But I will hope continually
and will praise you yet more and more.
My mouth will tell of your righteous acts,
of your deeds of salvation all the day,
for their number is past my knowledge.

With the mighty deeds of the Lord God I will come;
I will remind them of your righteousness, yours alone.

O God, from my youth you have taught me,
and I still proclaim your wondrous deeds.

So even to old age and gray hairs,
O God, do not forsake me,
until I proclaim your might to another generation,
your power to all those to come.
Your righteousness, O God,
reaches the high heavens.
You who have done great things,
O God, who is like you?

You who have made me see many troubles and calamities
will revive me again;
from the depths of the earth
you will bring me up again.
You will increase my greatness
and comfort me again.

I will also praise you with the harp
for your faithfulness, O my God;
I will sing praises to you with the lyre,
O Holy One of Israel.
My lips will shout for joy,
when I sing praises to you;
my soul also, which you have redeemed.

And my tongue will talk of your righteous help all the day long,
for they have been put to shame and disappointed
who sought to do me hurt.
