O Mary, Virgin most powerful and Mother of mercy,

Queen of Heaven and Refuge of sinners, we consecrate

ourselves to thine Immaculate Heart.

  We consecrate to thee our very being and our whole life;

all that we have, all that we love, all  that we are. To thee

we give our bodies, our hearts and our souls; to thee we

give our homes, our families, our country.

 

  We desire that all that is in us and around us may belong

to thee,  and may share in the benefits of thy motherly

benediction. And that this act of consecration may be truly

efficacious and lasting, we renew this day at thy feet the

promises of our Baptism and our first Holy Communion.

 

  We pledge ourselves to profess courageously and at

all times  the truths of our holy Faith, and to live as befits

Catholics who are duly submissive to all the  directions

of the Pope and the Bishops in communion with him.

We pledge ourselves to keep  the commandments of God

and His Church, in particular to keep holy the Lord's Day.

 

  We  likewise pledge ourselves to make the consoling

practices of the Christian religion, and above all, Holy

Communion, an integral part of our lives, in so far as we

shall be able so to do.

  Finally, we promise thee, O glorious Mother of God and

loving Mother of men, to devote  ourselves whole-heartedly

to the service of thy blessed cult, in order to hasten and assure, 

through the sovereignty of thine Immaculate Heart, the coming

of the kingdom of the Sacred Heart of thine adorable Son,

in our own hearts and in those of all men, in our country and

in all the world, as in heaven. so on earth.

 

Amen.
