An act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
O JESUS, Saviour of mankind, Thou has mercifully revealed to us the wonderful riches of Thy Heart; in thanksgiving for Thy benefits, especially for the institution of the Holy Eucharist, in reparation for the offenses against the Blessed Sacrament, in union with Thy mediation in heaven for us poor sinners. I consecrate myself entirely to Thee, for the glory of God and the salvation of souls. I promise to aid in spreading the worship and in promoting the interests of Thy sacred Heart.
I choose, moreover, the Blessed Virgin Mary for my queen, my advocate, and my mother, and I am resolved to imitate her virtues, in particular her love for sinners, and to foster and promote devotion to her immaculate conception. I beseech Thee humbly to accept this promise. Thou hast inspired me to make it; grant me the grace to fulfil it Amen.
Sweet Heart of Jesus, be my love!
Sweet heart of Mary, be my salvation!
Pious Ejaculations
MAY the Heart of Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament be praised, adored, and loved with grateful affection, at every moment, In all the tabernacles of the world, even to the end of time. Amen.
Indulgence of 100 days. — Pius IX, Feb. 29.
