Each of us has a vision of good and of evil. We have to encourage people to move towards what they think is good... Everyone has his own idea of good and evil and must choose to follow the good and fight evil as he conceives them. That would be enough to make the world a better place.
Priesthood
Ministerial Priesthood is at the service of the priesthood of all believers and involves the direct consecration of a man to Christ through the sacrament of orders, so that he can act in the person of Christ for the sake of the Christian faithful, above all in dispensing the sacraments.
Parish Prayer
O Almighty and eternal God, we fall on our knees before you, since from you every family on earth recieves its true meaning. Bind us together in love and make our families like yours. Bless our children and grant them your wisdom and understanding.
Bless our Parishioners, young and old, with unfailing favour. Bring joy and health to every home; give success to the work of our hands. Bless married couples with fruit of the womb, grant pregnant mothers safe delivery.
May our youths be gainfully employed. Our maidens happily married. May our travellers be protected. May the sick be restored to good health in mind and body.
May our Parish blossom with love and peace. Grant increase of vocations to the priestly and religious lives here in our parish, in the Archdiocese of Lagos, in Nigeria, and in the world at large, so that your Church may have labourers, sufficient in number and quality, to work with your Son Jesus Christ for the salvation of their fellow men and women.
May our bereaved ones be consoled, our departed Parishioners rest in peace.
We make this prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Most sacred Heart of Jesus...
Have mercy on us.

The Eucharist
The Eucharist also known as the Holy Communion, is taken in remembrance of what our Savior our Lord Jesus Christ has done for us on the cross. The bread represents Jesus' body that was scourged and broken before and during His crucifixion, and the cup represents His shed blood. At the cross, God took all of our sicknesses and diseases and put them on Jesus' originally perfect and healthy body, so that we can walk in divine health. The Bible says by His stripes, we are healed.
A Prayer for the Priest
O Jesus, Eternal Priest, keep the priests, your servants, within the shelter of your Sacred Heart, where none may harm them. Keep unstained their anointed hands, which daily touch your Sacred Body. Keep unsullied their lips, purpled with your Precious Blood.
Keep pure their hearts, sealed with the sublime mark of your glorious priesthood. Let your Holy Love glorious priesthood. Let your Holy Love surrond and shield them from the world's contagion. Bless their labour with abundant fruit, and may the souls to whom they minister here below be their joy and consolation and in heaven, their beautiful and everlasting crown. Amen.
Our Lady Queen of the Clergy, pray for your sons, our priests.
