Lord Jesus, Nazareth Seminary is modeled after your home in Nazareth, where you “grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man”. We ask that you send your Holy Spirit to guide our Bishop, seminary leaders, and formators, so that Nazareth Seminary is a place where men may be formed, as you were, under the guidance of Mary and Joseph.
As our seminarians strive to conform their hearts to Yours, help them grow in the strength, virtue and character needed to be men wholly consecrated to your service, eager to work in your vineyard with missionary zeal, so that your faithful will always be served by priests who joyfully share the Gospel.
Jesus, graciously hear this prayer through the intercession of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary, your Mother and St. Joseph, her Spouse. Amen.
