Blessed Mother and St. John Vianney are here. They both say: “Praise be to Jesus.” Now they look at Father – nod and smile.

St. John Vianney says: “The Holy Mother permits me to tell you this. Priests always need prayers no matter what their holiness seems to be on the surface. They are under attack, and it is not only the priests who suffer attacks but also the Church hierarchy–Cardinals and Bishops. Such is the state of each priest's daily journey–one attack after another. Understand that the priesthood is the soul of the Church.”

“We're blessing you tonight–She with Her Blessing of Holy Love, and I with my Priestly Blessing.”
