Entrusting the Parish to Our Lady Help of Christians
O Immaculate Mary Help of Christians, Queen of Heaven and Earth, and tender mother of humanity at this time when the pandemic threatens all your children, we entrust to you our nation Australia, and all who live in this country. We commit to your intercession all the members of our community, beginning with the weakest ones from the unborn, sick, disabled and the elderly. We commit to you our families, our young, our old, all of those who are vulnerable and those who are quarantined or anxious. We enstrust to your Immaculate Heart, those who have lost their livelihoods, our pastors and other essential service workers, and our leaders at this time. We implore your intecession, especially for the protection of doctors and nurses, and those that minister to the contagious sick in this crisis. Reign over us, Mother of God, and teach us how to make the heart of Jesus reign and triumph in us and around us as it has reigned and triumphed in You. Amen.

Consecration of our Parish to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
O Mary, Virgin most powerful and Mother of Mercy, Queen of Heaven and Refuge of Sinners, we consecrate ourselves to thy Immaculate Heart. We consecrate to thee our very being and our whole life: all that we have, all that we love, all that we are. To thee we give our bodies, our hearts, and our souls; to thee we give our homes, our families and our country. We desire that all that is in us and around us may belong to thee and may share in the benefits of thy motherly blessing. And, that this act of consecration may be truly fruitful and lasting, we renew this day at thy feet the promises of our Baptism and our First Holy Communion. We pledge ourselves to profess courageously and at all times the truths of our holy Faith, and to live as befits Catholics, who are submissive to all directions of the Pope and the bishops in communion with him. We pledge ourselves to keep the Commandments of God and His Church, in particular to keep holy the Lord’s Day. We pledge ourselves to make the consoling practices of the Christian religion, and above all, Holy Communion, an important part of our lives, in so far as we shall be able to do. Finally, we promise thee, O glorious Mother of God and loving Mother of men, to devote ourselves wholeheartedly to the spreading of devotion to thy Immaculate Heart, in order to hasten and assure, through the queenly rule of thy Immaculate Heart, the coming of the kingdom of the Sacred Heart of thy adorable Son, in our own hearts and in those of all men, in our country, and in all the world, as in Heaven, so on earth. Amen.
