4-7 October – 1st Day – Act of Reparation

Let 4-7 October be a time of reparation for the elevation of the demon idol “Pachamama” near to and within one of the most sacred shrines in all Christendom, St. Peter’s Basilica.

5th “anniversary”.

In the 1928 encyclical Miserentissimus Redemptor Pope Pius XI said:

The creature’s love should be given in return for the love of the Creator, another thing follows from this at once, namely that to the same uncreated Love, if so be it has been neglected by forgetfulness or violated by offense, some sort of compensation must be rendered for the injury, and this debt is commonly called by the name of reparation.

Since today is a 1st Friday, it is appropriate to use on this first day the Act of Reparation to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus which was given to us as a great spiritual tool by Pope Pius XI in Miserentissimus Redemptor (“Most merciful Redeemer”).  You can find that prayer HERE.  You can gain a partial indulgence under the usual circumstances. If possible, make a good confession and Holy Communion today or tomorrow, a 1st Saturday.  Another prayer could be the Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus – HERE.

That said, I opt to post Leo XIII’s Act of Consecration of the Human Race to the Sacred Heart of Jesus because it specifically mentions idolatry.   Also, it is October.  This prayer is recited on the last Sunday of October, the traditional Feast of Christ the King.  This prayer underscores the Kingship of Christ not only over the Heavenly realm in the summation of all things, but in the here and now over everything and everyone.

I invite you to get down on your knees and recite this aloud.

The Act of Consecration of the Human Race
to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

Most sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us humbly prostrate before Thy altar. We are Thine, and Thine we wish to be; but, to be more surely united with Thee, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to Thy most Sacred Heart. Many indeed have never known Thee; many too, despising Thy precepts, have rejected Thee. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to Thy Sacred Heart. Be Thou King, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken Thee, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned Thee; grant that they may quickly return to their Father’s house lest they die of wretchedness and hunger. Be Thou King of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and unity of faith, so that soon there may be but one flock and one Shepherd. Be Thou King of all those who are still involved in the darkness of idolatry or of Islamism, and refuse not to draw them all into the light and kingdom of God. Turn Thine eyes of mercy toward the children of that race, once thy chosen people. Of old they called down upon themselves the Blood of the Saviour; may It now descend upon them a laver of redemption and of life. Grant, O Lord, to Thy Church assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give peace and order to all nations, and make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: Praise to the divine Heart that wrought our salvation; to It be glory and honor forever. Amen.
