Whatever the challenges priests might face, they continue to stand as living links in a chain reaching back over 20 centuries to connect with the very person of Christ. Through the Eucharist they celebrate, the Gospel they preach, the baptisms they administer, the confessions they hear, the marriages they witness, and the anointing of the sick and dying, priests bring Christ to their people, and people to Christ. For that, we thank them, and we thank God for the gift of the priesthood.
