The Holy Trinity Vianney Cenacle

Would you dare to discover and live out the wonderful grace of praying for priests and the ministerial priesthood? Can you appreciate the Church's need for holy, healthy, and faithful priests? Are you grateful for the gift of many wonderful priests and the gift of the Eucharist? How truly is it said: No priests, no Eucharist...no Eucharist, no life! For only the priest is able to speak over the bread and wine, 'This is my Body...This is my Blood' and bring Jesus to us, in His Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity, as He promised He would be with us 'even unto the end of the age.' But the Church needs many more holy priests, especially for such a time as this, and they don't grow on trees! They have to be prayed for from the beginning of their vocational call, through their program of priestly formation, and throughout their ministerial priesthood.

Serving in the prayer ministry of the Vianney Cenacle is a very beautiful and effective way to demonstrate our deep care and gratitude for the gift of the ministerial priesthood, and therefore, the Church! The mission of the ministry is to provide spiritual support for priests, particularly for our own parish priests, and for vocations to the priesthood. We endeavor to accomplish this through Intercessory Prayer, Eucharistic Adoration, Spiritual Communion at Mass, Service and/or Sacrifice. Our main goal is to petition for the strength, protection, health, and holiness of all priests and seminarians. Members are invited to engage in any of these spiritual activities, collectively and/or individually, on a regular basis. All adult women and men (at least 18 years old) are welcome to join the Vianney Cenacle!

The Vianney Cenacle meets monthly for an hour, virtually or in-person, as conditions allow. For further details and information, please contact:
