A CONSECRATION OF RUSSIA TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY

CONSECRATION OF RUSSIA TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY

Prostrate before Your Throne of Grace, O Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, we remember the requests You made when You came to visit us at Fatima. 

The abominable sins of the world, the persecutions directed against the Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ, the apostasy of the Christian nations and souls, the neglect of Your Maternity of Grace by a great majority, burdened then and continue to bruise today Your Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart, so united in compassion with the sufferings of the Sacred Heart of Your Divine Son. 

In order to make reparation for so many crimes, You came to ask for the establishment of the devotion of reparation to Your Immaculate Heart, and in order to stop God’s chastisements which You predicted, You made Yourself the Messenger of the Most High, to request from the Vicar of Our Lord Jesus Christ, united with all the bishops of the world, the consecration of Russia to Your Immaculate Heart. 

On this Feast of the Annunciation, chosen by the Supreme Pontiff to surround himself with all the bishops of the world, in order to solemnly consecrate to Your Immaculate Heart, “ his person, the Church, and the whole of humanity, in particular Russia and Ukraine,” we wish to associate our voices to the prayer that rises to Your maternal power. 

Therefore, O Mother of God, deign to accept this solemn act of reparation which we present to Your Immaculate Heart, which, together with the Sacred Heart of Jesus, is so burdened by the offences of sinners and by impious souls. 

Moreover, we give, deliver, and consecrate Russia especially to Your Immaculate Heart: we beg You, in Your Maternal mercy, to take this nation under Your powerful protection, to make it Your domain where You reign as Queen, to make it a land of election and blessing. We beseech You to subdue this nation so that it may become a new Kingdom for Our Lord Jesus Christ, a new conquest under His sweet scepter. May it return from its schism to the unity of the One Fold of the Eternal Shepherd, and thus submit to the Vicar of Your Divine Son, and become an ardent proclaimer of the social Kingdom of Our Lord Jesus Christ to all nations of the Earth. 

Furthermore, we beg you, O Mother of Mercy, by accomplishing this shining miracle through Your all powerful supplication, to manifest to the world the truth of Your Universal Mediation of Grace. Finally, O Queen of Peace, bring to the world that peace which the world cannot give, the peace of nations and of souls, the peace of Christ in the Kingdom of Christ, and the Kingdom of Christ through the reign of your Immaculate Heart. Amen.
