There is a dignity with the priesthood, and it is being taken back by holy men who are more concerned with the salvation of souls than with their self-esteem.
Welcome back into our vocabulary: humility and sacrifice.
The Angel of Darkness has the mark of the priesthood in his crosshairs. Hence, we must pray for our priests.
Its the holy cupcake!
