Transcription
Our Lady of Fatima Queen of Peace, Pray for us. (front) Consecration to the Immaculate Heart. O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth, and tender Mother of men, in accordance with thy ardent wish made known at Fatima, I consecrate to thee myself, my brethren, my country, and the whole human race. Reign over us and teach us how to make the Heart of Jesus reign and triump in us and around us, as It has reigned and triumphed in thee. Reign over us, dearest Mother, that we may be thine in prosperity and in adversity; in joy and in sorrow; in health and in sickness; in life and in death. O most compassionate Heart of Mary, Queen of Virgins, watch over our minds and hearts and preserve them from the deluge of impurity which thou didst lament so sorrowfully at Fatima. We want to be pure like thee. We want to atone for the many crimes committed against Jesus and thee. We want to call down upon our Country and the whole human race the peace of God in justice and charity. Therefore, we now promise to imitate thy virtues by the practice of a Christian life wihtout regard to human respect. We resolve to receive Holy Communion on the First Saturday of every month, and to offer thee five decades of the Rosary each day together with our sacrifices in the spirit of reparation and penance. Amen. (back)
