Pray for Priests | JAN 2026
Take a moment to look at January’s list and remember the priests from the Diocese of Covington in your prayers. Remember to pray for those who pray for us!
Below are the priests of our diocese for whom we are asked to pray daily.
Prayer:
Eternal Father, we lift up to You these and all the priests of the world. Sanctify them. Heal and guide them. Mold them into the likeness of Your Son, Jesus the Eternal High Priest. May their lives be pleasing to You. In Jesus’s name we pray. Amen
