We are dedicated to offering encouragement and spiritual support to priests, religious, the lay faithful, our Protestant brothers and sisters.
Through this mission, we hope to foster faith, hope, and comfort; reminding each soul that they are seen, loved, and never alone.
Humble Beginnings
The Servants of the Eucharistic Sacrifice was born unexpectedly in June 2022, when one of our founders entered into full communion with the Catholic Church. A close friendship with a priest from the Diocese of Gaylord—spanning over ten years—took on new meaning as she came to understand the depth of his daily sacrifice. For the first time, she saw clearly the quiet, profound offering of life that every priest makes for the Church.
Her appreciation didn’t stop at Catholic clergy. She reflected on the many Protestant pastors she had known over the years and recognized in them the same sincere love and commitment to their communities. Though the callings are different, the love for God’s people is shared.
That Father’s Day, moved by gratitude, she sent Father’s Day cards to all the priests and deacons of the Diocese of Gaylord. She expected nothing in return—but to her surprise, a few cards came back. Thank-you notes. Simple, sincere. And with them came prayer requests.
That was the beginning.
Each year, more cards were sent—and more responses returned. The need for prayer, encouragement, and connection was clear. What began as one person’s gesture of appreciation became a growing ministry, dedicated to supporting those who serve the Church with their whole lives.
Today, the Servants of the Eucharistic Sacrifice continues that mission:
Through Prayer
Offering prayer and spiritual encouragement for priests, deacons, and other ministers
Building Connections
Building connections of grace and gratitude through written letters of encouragement
Honoring the Sacrifice
