Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
I, __________, give myself and consecrate to the Sacred Heart of our Lord Jesus Christ my person and my life, my actions, pains, and sufferings, so that I may be unwilling to make use of any part of my being save to honor, love, and glorify the Sacred Heart.
This is my unchanging purpose, namely, to be all His, and to do all things for the love of Him, at the same time renouncing with all my heart whatever is displeasing to Him.
I therefore take Thee, O Sacred Heart, to be the only object of my love, the guardian of my life, my assurance of salvation, the remedy of my weakness and inconstancy, the atonement for all the faults of my life and my sure refuge at the hour of death.
Be then, O Heart of goodness, my justification before God Thy Father, and turn away from me the strokes of His righteous anger. O Heart of love, I put all my confidence in Thee, for I fear everything from my own wickedness and frailty; but I hope for all things from Thy goodness and bounty.
Do Thou consume in me all that can displease Thee or resist Thy holy will. Let Thy pure love imprint Thee so deeply upon my heart that I shall nevermore be able to forget Thee or to be separated from Thee. May I obtain from all Thy loving kindness the grace of having my name written in Thee, for in Thee I desire to place all my happiness and all my glory, living and dying in true bondage to Thee.
Amen
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I desire You in my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. As though You were already there, I embrace You and unite myself to You; permit not that I should ever be separated from You.
Amen
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, truly present in the Holy Eucharist, I consecrate my body and soul to be entirely one with Your heart, being sacrificed at every instant on all the altars of the world and giving praise to the Father pleading for the coming of His Kingdom.
Please receive this humble offering of myself. Use me as You will for the glory of the Father and salvation of souls.
Most Holy Mother of God, never let me be separated from Your Divine Son. Please defend and protect me as Your special child.
Amen
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
I good Jesus, hear me.
Within Your wounds hide me.
Never permit me to be separated from Thee.
From the wicked enemy, defend me.
At the hour of my death, call me and bid me come to Thee.
That with Your Saints I may praise Thee
Forever and ever.Amen
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This prayer uses the Rosary in the following manner:

- Say the Hail Mary
- Say the Apostles Creed

Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity
of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ,
in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.On the ten beads of each decade:
For the sake of His sorrowful Passion,
have mercy on us and on the whole world.Conclude by repeating three times:
Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One,
have mercy on us and on the whole world.Amen
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First Friday in Honor of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
The Heart of Jesus is the symbol of the infinite love that impelled the Son of God to become our brother, to die for us on the Cross, and to remain forever in the Sacrament of the Altar. Jesus asks each of us to return that love.
In various appearances to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, Jesus manifested His great love for human beings and made the following promises to those who give particular honor to His Sacred Heart:
- "I will give them all the graces necessary in their state of life."
- "I will establish peace in their homes."
- "I will comfort them in their afflictions."
- "I will be their secure refuge during life, and above all in death."
- "I will bestow a large blessing upon all their undertakings."
- "Sinners shall find in My Heart the source and the infinite ocean of mercy."
- "Tepid souls shall grow fervent."
- "Fervent souls shall quickly mount to high perfection."
- "I will bless every place where a picture of My Heart shall be set up and honored."
- "I will give to priests the gift of touching the most hardened hearts."
- "Those who shall promote this devotion shall have their names written in My Heart, never to be blotted out."
- "I promise thee in the excessive mercy of My Heart that My all-powerful love will grant to all those who communicate on the First Friday in nine consecutive months, the grace of final penitence; they shall not die in My disgrace nor without receiving the Sacraments; My Divine heart shall be their safe refuge in this last moment."
Amen
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable, most mysterious and unutterable Name of God be always praised, blessed, loved and glorified in heaven, on earth and under the earth, by all the creatures of God, and by the Sacred Heart of our Lord Jesus Christ in the most Holy Sacrament of the altar.
Amen
This prayer was revealed by Our Lord to a Carmelite Non of Tours in 1843 as a reparation for blasphemy. "This Golden Arrow will wound My Heart delightfully," He said, "and heal the wounds inflicted by blasphemy."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Help me to understand, Lord,
that what counts is not the road traveled,
but simply putting my hand in yours
and journeying side by side with you, Lord Jesus --
0 you who are the joy of my journey
and also the repose in the Father's home!
Holy, holy is the Lord, for eternal is his love.Amen
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
O my Divine Savior, transform me into yourself.
May my hands be the hands of Jesus.
May my tongue be the tongue of Jesus,
Grant that every faculty of my body may serve only to glorify you.
Above all, transform my soul and all its powers,
that my memory, my will and my affections
may be the memory, the will and the affections of Jesus.
I pray you to destroy in me all that is not you.
Grant that I may live but in you and for you,
and that I may truly say with St. Paul:
"I live, now not I, but Christ lives in me" (Gal 2:20).Amen
(Prayer of St. John Gabriel Perboyre, CM)

Padre Pio's Prayer After Holy Communion
Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You.
Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength, that I may not fall so often.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life and without You I am without fervor.
Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light and without You I am in darkness.
Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.
Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.
Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You very much and alway be in Your company.
Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.
Stay with me, Lord, as poor as my soul is I want it to be a place of consolation for You,
a nest of Love.
Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close and life passes, death, judgment and eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strenth, so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You. It is getting late and death approaches, I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows. O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile!
Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers, I need You.Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.
Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You, if not by Communion, at least by grace and love.
Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love, Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more.With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity.
Amen
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Look down upon me, good and gentile Jesus, while before Your face I humbly kneel and,
with burning soul, pray and beseech You to fix deep in my heart libely sentiments of
faith, hope and charity; true contrition for my sins, and a firm purpose of amendment.While I comtemplate, with great love and tender pity, Your five most precious wounds,
ponder over them within me and calling to mind the words which David, Your prophet,
said to You, my Jesus:"They have pierced My hands and My feet, they have numbered all My bones."
Our Father....
Hail Mary....
Glory Be....
for the Holy Father's intentions.Amen
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lord Jesus,
give us the humility wherever pride reigns,
pardon wherever offense abides,
grace wherever sin abounds;
we pray to You;
Jesus Christ, risen Lord, have mercy on us!Amen
