St. Paul, great Apostle of the Gentiles,
intercede for us to God for our priests.
You are God's special vessel of election.
Through your intercession
we hope to receive from Him this special grace:
God, you have instructed many nations
through the preaching of the Apostle Paul.
Let the power of his intercession with You help us
who venerate his memory this day.
Amen.
