Come Holy Spirit, come by means of the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Your well beloved Spouse!

 

Oh Blood and Water which gush forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fount of mercy for us, I trust in You!

 

To the Holy Trinity

         O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I worship You dwelling within me. I renew my Baptismal vows this day, surrendering the whole of my life and every aspect of my life to You, that Your perfect and Divine Will may be accomplished in me this day and at every moment of my life.  May I grow in ever-deeper espousal union and fellowship of life with You in Your Three Persons that I may be “possessed by my Beloved, vibrate the Spirit’s touch and rest filially within the Father’s heart” (cf JPII Novo).

 

To the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts

         Most Sacred Eucharistic Heart of Jesus and Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, I renew my consecration to Your Two Hearts this day that You may hold me, guide me and inspire me in being about our Father’s business. Consume me in the Fire of the love of Your Hearts, which is the Holy Spirit, so that through such nuptial union with Christ my Bridegroom, I may enter ever-more deeply into the Father’s eternal embrace of Love.

 

Consecration to Mary

Immaculate Mother, Spotless Bride, I an unfaithful sinner, renew into your hands the vows of my Baptism. I renounce forever Satan, his empty promises and evil designs; and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, Divine Bridegroom of my soul, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life.

         Hold me Mother, in the womb of your Immaculate Heart. Take me to yourself as your child and nourish me with the grace of your milk, that I may be formed into the image of Christ your Son.

 

Truth Card Prayer

         Dear Mother, I accustom myself to a new way of thinking. It is not my place to think of what is best for me. May you build moment-by-moment my future. May I be ever in your heart and at each moment I will find peace. May I not be worried about what I am to do. Since I have consecrated myself to you, I belong totally to you. I cannot at any moment of the day decide freely what I am to do with myself.

         If I remain with you, you will tell me at every moment what you would like for me to do, and then whatever I do will always be in accordance with God’s Holy Will.  You will take me by the hand and together we will do everything. With me you are like a Mother who is teaching its child to take its first steps. May I live with perfect love and perfect abandonment the present, which you, moment-by-moment, arrange for me your little babe. I am no longer alone. I always have with me you my Mother, who take me by the hand, who clasp me to your Immaculate Heart.

St. Joseph, pray for us!

 

To the Archangels

         St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray, and do thou oh Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls.

 

St. Gabriel, St. Raphael, pray for us!

 

To Guardian Angel

All the holy Angels and Saints, pray for us! (especially those whose feasts are celebrated today)

 

Holy Souls in purgatory, pray for us and we pray for you!

FATIMA PRAYER

Most Holy Trinity - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - I adore thee profoundly. I offer Thee the most precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifferences whereby He is offended. And through the infinite merits of His Most Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of Thee the conversion of poor sinners.
