PRAYERS TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY:

Consecration of the family to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

Come, O Maria, and deign to live in this house. Just as the Church and all mankind were consecrated to your Immaculate Heart, so we perpetually entrust and consecrate our family to your Immaculate Heart. You who are Mother of Divine Grace, obtain for us to always live in the grace of God and in peace among us.
Stay with us; we welcome you with the heart of children, unworthy, but eager to always be yours, in life, in death and in eternity. Stay with us as you lived in the house of Zacharias and Elizabeth; how you were joy in the house of the spouses of Cana; as you were mother to the Apostle John. Bring us Jesus Christ, Way, Truth and Life. Remove sin and all evil from us.
In this house be Mother of Grace, Master and Queen. Dispense to each of us the spiritual and material graces we need; especially increase faith, hope, charity. Arouse among our dear holy vocations. Always be with us, in joys and sorrows, and above all make sure that one day all the members of this family are united with you in Paradise.

Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

O Mary, my most amiable Mother, I offer your son to you today, and I consecrate forever to your Immaculate Heart all that remains of my life, my body with all its miseries, my soul with all its weaknesses, the my heart with all its affections and desires, all the prayers, labors, loves, sufferings and struggles, especially my death with all that will accompany it, my extreme pains and my last agony.

All this, my Mother, I unite it forever and irrevocably to Your love, to Your tears, to Your sufferings! My sweetest mother, remember this Your son and the consecration he makes of himself to Your Immaculate Heart, and if I, overcome by despair and sadness, by disturbance or anguish, sometimes I would forget you, then, My mother, I ask you and I beg You, for the love you bring to Jesus, for His Wounds and for His Blood, to protect me as Your son and not to abandon me until I am with you in glory. Amen.

O Mother of men and peoples, you who feel maternally all the struggles between good and evil, between light and darkness, which shake the contemporary world, welcome our cry which, as moved by the Holy Spirit, we address directly to the your heart and embraces, with the love of the mother and the servant, this human world of ours, which we entrust and consecrate to you, full of restlessness for the earthly and eternal fate of men and peoples. Before you, Mother of Christ, before your immaculate heart, I wish today, together with the whole Church, to join our Redeemer in his consecration for the world and for men, who only in his heart has the power of obtain forgiveness and procure reparation. Help us overcome the threat of evil ...

From hunger and war, set us free! From sins against man's life from its dawn, deliver us! From the hatred and degradation of the dignity of the children of God, deliver us! From all kinds of injustices in social, national and international life, free us! From the ease of trampling on the commandments of God, deliver us! From sins against the Holy Spirit, deliver us! Deliver us!
Accept, oh Mother of Christ, this cry full of the suffering of entire societies! The infinite power of merciful love is revealed once again in the history of the world. May it stop evil and transform consciences. In your immaculate heart reveal the light of hope for everyone! Amen.

John Paul II
