Prayer for Fr. Stern and all priests in the Belleville diocese and in the Church worldwide:
by St. Therese of Lisieux
O Jesus, eternal Priest,
keep your priests within the shelter of Your Sacred Heart,
where none may touch them.
Keep unstained their anointed hands,
which daily touch Your Sacred Body.
Keep unsullied their lips,
daily purpled with your Precious Blood.
Keep pure and unearthly their hearts,
sealed with the sublime mark of the priesthood.
Let Your holy love surround them and
shield them from the world's contagion.
Bless their labors with abundant fruit and
may the souls to whom they minister be their joy and
consolation here and in heaven their beautiful and
everlasting crown. Amen.

Fr. Ben is a fantastic priest with a gifted intellect. I believe him to be the most brilliant priest we have in the presbyterate, especially in terms of philosophy, systematic and Thomistic theology.
He's even published a book: "The search for Catholicism: A Philisophical and Existential Inquiry." Keep up the great work Fr. Ben!
