Highlighting 1000 Holy Priests

What priest can you add?

Seeking 1000 holy priests, living, deceased, or canonized. These priests inspire house residents and visitors by their lives of goodness and service. Their names receive honor by being engraved on 5" x 5" brass plaques in the chapel.

One plaque is pictured to the left. See all the plaques completed to date on this link.

 

Plaques are placed on the wall beneath a framed poster explaining the life size, true to life reproduction of the tilma of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Three of the plaques are visible in the above photo.

Plaque sponsorship donations assist with the expenses of maintaining Guadalupe Vita Dei House.

Guadalupe Men's Vita Dei House is a home where men who are struggling to hear God's voice can set aside time for the Lord, while living in community with other men. To learn more about Guadalupe Vita Dei House, visit this link.

While Mary, Mother of Priests Chapel is the house chapel for Guadalupe Vita Dei House, visitors are welcome by appointment. Please phone the House Administrator to arrange a visit.

 

The Chapel's goal is to feature the names of 1000 holy, Catholic priests whose names appear on plaques in the chapel. To sponsor a priest,  consult this link.

 

The Chapel is used daily by men discerning a priestly, religious, or other vocation as well as those who simply need a quiet, holy place of prayer. Primary daily prayer for house residents is the Divine Office (Morning, Evening, and Night Prayer) and private, contemplative prayer. On occasion, Holy Mass is offered in the Chapel. 

 

All Chapel benefactors and sponsored priests will be remembered during prayer times and Masses. 

Mary, Mother of Priests Chapel is dedicated to Dom Julian Stead, OSB. His memorabilia is one of the chapel’s features. Fr. Julian supported the Confraternity of Penitents through its refounding in 2003. In his over sixty years as a priest, Fr. Julian had significant positive influence over a huge number of people. May he rest in peace, as he was God’s faithful servant.
