On this holy and solemn day, Feast of the Queen of Victories As pontiff, I wish to consecrate anew to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Holy Mother Church, Church of Christ, past, present, alive, eternal. In the one Spirit which proceeds from the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I once again, entrust and consecrate to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Queen of Victories, Virgin of the Holy Rosary, my life and my pontificate. The life and apostolate of my brother bishops, the life and priestly service of every minister of the Church, the life and loving service of every son of the Mother Church, so that by entrusting ourselves to Mary, we may today together renew our yes to the Father, for the call we have received, offering to the Father our lives and our daily lives, on the example of Jesus, and thus be united in his Cross, indelible sign of the infinite love of God. In the love of a man-God, who took upon himself all, raising to the Father to liberate every son, who in the Cross of Christ, sees himself and finds himself. All bothers, unite yourselves now to my Heart to recite together the supplication Our Lady, so that in Mary with Mary and through Mary, God almighty Father, good and Holy Father, merciful and just, may he obtain for us the victory over the evil one and every evil, for the triumph of Christianity, on humanism and sin, to make all his children live in love and in grace, in mercy and in justice. Giving to all of us eternal salvation. «O celestial Mother, O pure Star of Heaven, Joy of our Hearts, You who have made me know how vain worldly things are, how great divine things are, how sure eternal things are, how sad hell is, remove from sinners’ minds the darkness of error and evil. O most sweet Mother, You who revealed to me the greatness of Your Love, the value of Your Holy Rosary, You who deigned to show me the way of prayer for sinners, grant that our Hearts may be filled with divine grace and shine with heavenly wisdom. Pour forth the grace of Mercy, so we may attain forgiveness for our sins. You who can do all things, O good Mother, ask Jesus for the conversion of all poor sinners: «They are, as others have already reminded You, our brothers and Your children, at the cost of the blood of Your dear Jesus … » We are so vulnerable, O dear Mother, and the devil rages with so much pride; but with Your Rosary, we are certain we will defeat him.
