Dear friends in Christ, you know the importance of this ministry, and the weight of your responsibility in presenting  N.N. for ordination to the sacred priesthood. Therefore if any of you know any impediment or crime because of which  we should not proceed, come forward now, and make it  known.

Is it your will that N. be ordained a priest?

It is.

Will you uphold him in this ministry?

We will.

In peace let us pray to the Lord.
