Father, please keep the priest whom You called nine years ago healthy, strong, and always filled with Your peace. Continue to accompany and strengthen him in the vocation You have entrusted to him. Give him a loving heart, a steadfast faith, and renewed strength each day to serve the people You have placed in his care.
I thank You, Father, for everything You have accomplished through his life and ministry throughout these years. For all that has been, all that is, and all that is yet to come, everything is grace! Please keep him close to Your heart, so that each day he may become more and more an instrument of Your love and peace in this world. May he remain faithful to the call You placed in his heart nine years ago, and may he always belong completely to You.
司祭叙階9周年、おめでとうございます, 神父様！
