The Act of Consecration to The Sacred Heart of Jesus and The Immaculate Heart of Mary
Lord Jesus Christ, we consecrate ourselves to You today – each one of us, and all of us together as a family. Your Sacred Heart, the heart of Your crucified and risen Body, is the ever-living source of mercy and grace, hope and love for all of us. We desire to pledge ourselves and our lives to You in return.
Teach us to be always united with You through Your Holy Spirit: in mind and heart, in all our thoughts, words, deeds, joys and sufferings. Grant that we may ever “know You more clearly, love You more dearly, and follow You more nearly.”
We wish to share in Your redeeming work in our world: that Your Father’s will may truly be done on earth as it is in heaven; that the “civilization of justice and love” may thus be built up in our land.
Heart of Jesus, help us to keep sin away from our lives. Help us to keep loving, serving and forgiving each other. Live in our hearts and in our homes always. Make us wholly Yours.
With Your Mother’s Immaculate Heart, we renew our consecration to Your Sacred Heart, for the ever greater glory of our Father in Heaven. Amen!
Jesus, Mary and Joseph, be with us and bless us now and at the hour of our death. Amen!
