# Daily consecration to Mary
*2015-05-04*

> Bill Young shares a short, powerful daily devotion for the month of May focused on renewing one's consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary.

## A devotion for May

Good morning. This is Bill Young and welcome to Prayer N Lunch. Today we continue with our devotions to Mary during the month of May. I want to share a short devotion that can be done daily, called a daily consecration to Mary.

## The act of consecration

O Immaculate Virgin, my mother Mary, I renew this day and forever the consecration of all my being to you, so that you may dispose of me for the good of souls. My Queen and Mother of the Church, I only ask to cooperate faithfully in your mission for the coming of the kingdom of Jesus in the world.

## Offering our daily lives

O Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer you the prayers, actions, and sacrifices of today. I offer these particularly for all souls: for the sinners, for my family members, my friends, acquaintances, coworkers, and former coworkers, those who helped me, and those whom I forgive.

## Prayers for the Church

O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who recourse to you, and also for all who did not seek your help, in particular for the enemies of the Holy Church. Amen. God bless you all. God bless Pope Francis, all the bishops and cardinals, all our priests, all our sisters, all our deacons, and all those who serve in the Church.

*By renewing our consecration to Mary daily, we offer our entire lives and actions for the salvation of souls and the coming of Christ's kingdom.*
