Act of Consecration for a Parish/School

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Mother of the Heart of Jesus, our Queen and our Mother! Look down with mercy upon this [parish/school]. We wish to show thee our filial love and to render to thee our homage by this solemn act.

We come to offer thee our whole being, body and soul, faculties and senses, our life with all its sorrows and joys, all that we possess, all that we are, all that we love.

O Immaculate Virgin, Mother of God and Mother of all men! We consecrate ourselves and our [parish/school] to thy Immaculate Heart. Receive us as thy children.

May thy Heart be for all us priests, teachers and catechists, parents and children, young people, adult and elderly, healthy and sick, absent, present and fallen away the path that leads to God.

Reign over us, O Beloved Mother, so that we may be thine both in prosperity and in adversity, in joy and in sorrow, in health and in sickness, in life and in death.

O most compassionate Heart of Mary, Queen of Virgins, watch over our minds and our hearts and preserve them from the flood of pride, impurity and paganism of which thou didst complain so bitterly at Fatima.

From this moment, thou art named Queen and Mother of this [parish/school]. Look after our spiritual and temporal well-being, hear our prayers and console us in the sorrows and tribulations of this life and particularly at the hour of our death.

We want to call down upon our families and [parish/school], our country and the whole world the peace of God in justice and charity.

On our part, we promise to imitate thy virtues in a spirit of reparation and penance, by a true Christian life, by frequent confessions and holy Communions, by fervent participation in the divine Liturgy, by attentive study of the catechism without regard to human respect.

O Queen of the Holy Rosary, we promise to offer thee the prayer of the rosary each day.

We accept now, all the sacrifices that a Christian life will impose on us, and we offer them to the Heart of Jesus, by thy Immaculate Heart, in union with the Mass of thy divine Son.

O Mother of fair love, inflame in our hearts, [parish/school] and homes, with the divine fire to keep us faithful to our duty of state and to become, with the grace of God, zealous apostles towards our neighbors and poor sinners by our example, our sacrifices and prayers, bringing them to the practice of the true Faith.

May the reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, together with thy reign, enter this [parish/school], our Queen and our Mother, so that living truly consecrated to thy love and service, we may one day deserve eternal happiness in the presence of the Holy Trinity. Amen.

Act of Consecration of the Family to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

O Immaculate Heart of Mary,/ Mother of the Heart of Jesus,/ Mother and Queen of our household,/ that we may fulfill Thy ardent desire,/ we consecrate ourselves to Thee,/ and we beseech Thee to reign over our family. Reign over each one of us,/ and teach us how to make the Sacred Heart of Thy Divine Son/ reign and triumph in us and about us,/ as He has reigned and triumphed in Thee.

Reign over us, O Beloved Mother,/ so that we may be Thine both in prosperity and in adversity,/ in joy and in sorrow,/ in health and in sickness,/ in life and in death. O most compassionate Heart of Mary, Queen of Virgins,/ watch over our souls and our hearts/ and preserve them from the flood of pride,/ impurity,/ and paganism of which Thou hast complained so bitterly. We desire to do reparation/ for the numerous crimes committed/ against Jesus and Thee. We call upon our home,/ upon the homes of this country/ and upon those of the entire world,/ the peace of Christ in justice and charity.

Wherefore we promise/ to imitate Thy virtues,/ by a practical Christian life,/ and by frequent and fervent Holy Communion,/ regardless of human respect. We come with confidence to Thee,/ O Throne of Grace and Mother of Fair Love;/ inflame us with the same divine fire/ which has inflamed Thine own Immaculate Heart. Kindle in our hearts and homes,/ the love of purity,/ an ardent zeal for souls,/ and desire for the holiness of family life. We accept now,/ all the sacrifices that the Christian life will impose on us/ and we offer them to the Heart of Jesus,/ by Thy Immaculate Heart,/ in a spirit of reparation and of penance. To the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary/ be love, honor, and glory forever and ever! Amen.
