"Praying heart in the Church and for the Church,
the contemplative life of women, guardian of gratuitousness and rich apostolic fruitfulness,
has always been a visible witness of mysterious and multifaceted holiness."

Consecration to Our Lady of Perpetual Help
Mother of Perpetual Help,
mother of God and my mother,
you are after God, my great hope
during life and at death.
In order to remain in union with you
I come to dedicate myself to you for the time
and for eternity.
Mother of Perpetual Help.
to you my body and my senses,
to you my person and my faculties.
I want you to be present
throughout my life to support
my faith and my prayer life.
Take care of me
like a mother does for her child
and make me benefit from your Perpetual Help.
You are my mother and take me under your protection
as you do for everything that belongs to you.
I want to remain in union with you, during my life,
at the hour of my death and for all eternity
.
Amen.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help,
I like to come and pray at the foot of your miraculous image.
She instills in me feelings of confidence. In your arms, I see Jesus, my Savior and my God.
Jesus is the Almighty, the master of life and death. And you are his Mother and mine.
So I address you with confidence.
Humbly, I entrust to you the needs of my soul, of my family, of my parish community, of the Church, in particular…
I also beg you to come to my aid, at all times, everywhere and especially in difficult times.
Give me the thought and the habit of praying to you every day.
If I am faithful in praying to you, I am sure that you will be faithful in helping me. Grant me the grace to always pray to you with confidence.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help, come to my aid,now and at the hour of my death. Amen.
Prayer to ask for the intercession of
Mother Marie Celeste Crostarosa
Trusting in your intercession and sustained by the example of your life,
we invoke you,
O Blessed Mother Marie-Céleste.
You knew Christ the Redeemer as the Word of Life in his Gospels; you have become similar to Him as Savior in the contemplation of his mysteries; you put on Him as a living memorial.
In your participation in the Eucharist, obtain for those who seek truth and peace the joy of encountering Christ
in the mercy of the Church, in communion with one another, in charity towards the poor and those who suffer, so that all may be united in the loving embrace of the Father.
Amen.
