OFFERING OF LIFE

Say this prayer, offering your whole life, your sufferings and joys, to Jesus for:

-The salvation of all members of your family (including yourself).

-The souls of your relatives in Purgatory.

-The repentance of sinners.

-The covering of the remaining temporal punishment due to personal sins already confessed.

This prayer must be offered in a state of sanctifying grace (having not committed mortal sin after a good Confession or after a Perfect Act of Contrition—for the love of God—with the intention of going to confession as soon as possible).

PRAYER OF OFFERING OF LIFE (Dictated by Jesus and Mary Immaculate to Sister Maria Natalia Magdolna).

My loving Jesus, before the Persons of the Most Holy Trinity, before Our Mother in Heaven and all the Heavenly Court, I offer, according to the intentions of Your Eucharistic Heart and those of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Most Holy, my whole life, all my Holy Masses, Communions, good works, sacrifices, and sufferings, uniting them to the merits of Your Most Holy Blood and Your death on the Cross: to adore the Glorious Most Holy Trinity, to offer reparation for our offenses, for the unity of our Holy Mother Church, for our priests, for good priestly vocations, and for all souls until the end of the world.

Receive, my Jesus, my offering of my life and grant me the grace to persevere in it faithfully until the end of my life. Amen.

Prayers of Repentance:

My Jesus, I love You above all things!

For love of You, I repent of all my sins.

I am also grieved by the sins of the whole world.

O Merciful Love! In union with our Blessed Mother and her Immaculate Heart, I beg You to forgive my sins and all the sins of humankind, my brothers and sisters, until the end of the world!

My kind Jesus! In union with the merits of Your Sacred Wounds, I offer my life to the Eternal Father, according to the intentions of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Sorrows.

Virgin Mary, Queen of the Universe, Intercessor for Humanity and our hope, pray for us!

This Act was requested of Sister Natalia Magdolna (1901-1992) of the Sisters of the Good Shepherd of Saint Mary Magdalene of Keeskemet. The Blessed Virgin favored her with abundant locutions and extraordinary visions for several years.  She was a Hungarian nun, born near Pozsony (in present-day Slovakia), and died in the odor of sanctity.
