How to consecrate the family to the Immaculate Heart of Mary?

It is important to put ourselves under the guidance of Mary because only she can lead us to be a sacred and all-God's thing. For our part:

1) it is necessary to prepare the consecration with a certain period of common prayer in the family, possibly the Rosary with the reading of its messages.

2) Eliminate from the house everything that displeases the Lord (newspapers, books, limit television, modify a certain language, do not desecrate the party, necessary charitable works).

3) Make the confession and make the commitments that Mary recommends in Medjugorje.

Then on a day established after Communion in the Mass make a common act of consecration, which may be that of Jelena, or that of the Gifs of Rome or written by you. The consecration must be repeated often, perhaps with a short formula, eg: “We are all yours, O Mary, and everything ours is yours.

Consecration of the family to the Madonna

O Immaculate Virgin, Queen of Families, for that love with which God loved you from all eternity and chose you for Mother of his Only Begotten Son and at the same time for our Mother, and Mistress and Queen of the great Christian family and of every family in particular, turn your merciful eyes to this one who, prostrate here at your feet, comes to place yourselves under your protection and invoke your help. You who have with Jesus and through Jesus rededicated the domestic hearth; You who have left the woman, rehabilitated by you, a perfect model of loyalty and love; You who have shown your preference for families with the symbolic miracle obtained in favor of the spouses of Cana; You who through the centuries have often been moved by the miseries of Christian families, making you the Comforter of the afflicted, Help of Christians and Mother of the Orphans, accept the offer that we make of our family, electing you forever for our Queen and Mother. Do not reject our offer, O Immaculate Virgin, and deign to establish your kingdom of love in this house. Give this family your particular protection, placing it in the number of those you love in a particular way and on which you rain the rays of your graces more abundantly. Bless, O Mother, this family that is now yours and wants to be yours forever and make the virtues of the Holy Family of Nazareth shine in it. Grant prudence and faithfulness to parents, teach young people chastity, love and harmony to all. Let your sweet image, which dominates this house, never be saddened by blasphemies, brawls, swearing, bad speeches and that each of us always feel the sweet influence of your presence. Help, O Queen of Families, even to our material needs. Take care of our bodies, helping us in our infirmities, giving work to our arms and prosperity to our interests, so that the daily bread never fails and the poor never have to knock on our door in vain. Let us more sensibly feel your assistance in moments of pain, You who are the Mother of pain and the Comforter of the afflicted and sweeten our crosses with the sweetness of your motherly goodness. Be the watchful and powerful Guardian of this house and remove the enemy of our souls from it. Help us to keep the lamp of faith always on and never let us miss the wine of divine charity and mutual love. And when death knocks on our door, be ready to comfort those who leave and console those who remain. Extend, O lovable Queen, your blessing over all our distant relatives and help our dear departed, anticipating for them the prize of Paradise. Remain, good and tender Mother, among us and guard and protect us as your thing and possession. Be the center, the joy and the support of our life and make sure that, after living under your gaze and belonging to your family on earth, we can one day gather together around your throne to form your heaven family to all eternity.
