An Act Of
Consecration
Most Holy Trinity: Our Father in Heaven,
who chose Mary as the fairest of your daughters; Holy Spirit, who chose
Mary as your spouse; God the Son, who chose Mary as your Mother; in union
with Mary, we adore your majesty and acknowledge your supreme eternal dominion
and authority.
Most Holy Trinity, we put the United States
of America into the hands of Mary Immaculate in order that she may present
the country to you. Through her we wish to thank you for the great resources
of this land and for the freedom which has been its heritage. Through the
intercession of Mary, have mercy on the Catholic Church in America. Grant
us peace. Have mercy on our government. Grant us a fruitful economy born
of justice and charity. Have mercy on capital and industry and labor. Protect
the family life of the nation. Guard the innocence of our children. Grant
the precious gift of many religious vocations. Through the intercession
of our Mother, have mercy on the sick, the poor, the tempted, sinners –
on all who are in need.
Mary, Immaculate Virgin, Our Mother, Patroness
of our land, we praise you and honor you and give ourselves to you. Protect
us from every harm. Pray for us, that acting always according to your will
and the Will of your Divine Son, we may live and die pleasing to God.
Prayers for all Occasions, from the Basilica
of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, Washington, D.C.,
