CATHOLIC DIOCESE OF KROONSTAD

"Celebrating our Faith in Marriage and Family Life"

God our Father, you call your people to serve you and your Church.

We know that you call young men to service in the priesthood, to work in your vineyard, to proclaim the Gospel, to nourish your people with the Sacraments, to inspire and to encourage people to respond to love, to comfort the broken hearted, to heal the wounded, and seek out the lost.

All powerful Master we pray that many people will heed your call and become dedicated priests, to the glory of your name, through Christ our Lord. Amen

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR MISSION
