District of Australia and New Zealand

Prayer, Duty, Sacrifice!
In Homage to Christ our King
In Reparation to the Immaculate Heart
In Hope for the Souls of our District

1. Pray the rosary daily, making a special effort to pray it as a family if at all possible! Likewise, if possible, to pray the rosary at the same time as the rosary which is recited in the priory responsible for your parish.

2. Each head of household commits to make one serious improvement in the performance of the duty of state entrusted to them by Christ the King. Let all others likewise follow this example and make the same resolution.

3. Each person recites daily the following consecration to the Immaculate Heart.

“We come with confidence to thee, O Throne of Grace and Mother of our souls; inflame us with the same divine fire which inflames your own Immaculate Heart. Kindle in our hearts and homes the love of purity, an ardent zeal for souls, and a genuine desire for holiness. We accept now all the sacrifices that the Christian life will impose upon us in these times, and we offer them to the Heart of Jesus, by thy Immaculate Heart, in a spirit of reparation and of penance. To the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary be love, honor, and glory forever and ever. Amen.”
