Forum members,
On this feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, I kindly ask of you to personally make a prayer for the forum to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Later tonight, I will be consecrating the forum (via the below prayer) to the Sacred Heart. If you want to be super particular and you keep late Friday nights, I am tentatively planning it for 11:45pm Eastern time.
I would greatly appreciate if you could do this.
Thank you and God bless,
Kaesekopf
QuoteMost sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us humbly prostrate before Thine altar [if not in a church, replace "before Thine altar" with "in Thy presence"]. We are Thine, and Thine we wish to be; but, to be more surely united with Thee, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to Thy most Sacred Heart.
Many indeed have never known Thee; many too, despising Thy precepts, have rejected Thee. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to Thy sacred Heart. Be Thou King, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken Thee, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned Thee; grant that they may quickly return to Thy Father's house lest they die of wretchedness and hunger.
Be Thou King of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and unity of faith, so that there may be but one flock and one Shepherd.
Be Thou King of all those who are still involved in the darkness of idolatry or of Islamism, and refuse not to draw them into the light and kingdom of God. Turn Thine eyes of mercy towards the children of the race, once Thy chosen people: of old they called down upon themselves the Blood of the Savior; may it now descend upon them a laver of redemption and of life.
Grant, O Lord, to Thy Church assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give peace and order to all nations, and make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: "Praise be to the divine Heart that wrought our salvation; to it be glory and honor for ever." Amen.

Thanks so much for doing this. I really liked that consecration prayer.
Performed four minutes earlier than expected, but in front of the Blessed Sacrament.
Done. :pray1:
I prayed it at the appropriated time.
Done, but after midnight. Still counts, right?
Yeah.

Yes, but we will shame you for it. :)
This is pretty epic! Also really liking the new logo, guess I will have to mind my manner from now on...
I'm sure many posters, like myself, were unable to pray this on the feast day because of prior arrangements, but please feel free to pray it at any point from now on going forward. The prayers will still have efficacy.
And I'd also invite anyone to say this prayer for the forum regularly, as it will renew the consecration to the Sacred Heart of Our Lord.

Yes. If you (or anyone else) can remember, please do.
Well I didn't manage to remember at the right time for bumping this thread in July or August, this coming Friday will be the first Friday.
I will try to remember the forum when I go to First Friday at my local SSPX chapel with holy hour, confession & Mass!
That was how I met my local SSPX priest.
I am also thinking of enthroning the Sacred Heart in my home. Not quite sure how to do it. Not everyone lives here anymore. :cry: Should I just do it for myself and anyone else who wants to participate?

Don't you need a priest to enthrone the SH in your home?
Either way, I'd do it.

Bumparoo First Friday too.
It has been over two years since thread was last bumped to the top, which shows greater negligence by me than anything else. In hopes of rectifying this, and in hopes of making this a better, more Catholic forum (than it already is), I will be renewing the consecration of the forum this coming (First) Friday, October 7th. I ask that anyone who reads this will join me in prayer and in renewing the consecration.

In addition to the renewal, considering that this coming Friday is also the feast of the Most Holy Rosary, I ask that you also pray this prayer for the intentions and protection of the forum:
QuoteQueen of the most holy Rosary, in these times of brazen impiety, show thy power with the signs of thy former victories, and, from thy throne, from which thou bestowest pardon and graces, mercifully look upon the Church of thy Son, His Vicar on earth, and every order of clergy and laity, who are sorely oppressed in this mighty conflict. Powerful vanquisher of all heresies, hasten the hour of mercy, even though the hour of God's justice is every day provoked by the countless sins of men. For me, who am the least of men, kneeling before thee in prayer, obtain the grace I need to live a holy life upon earth and to reign among the just in heaven. Meanwhile, together with all faithful Christians throughout the world, I greet thee and acclaim thee as the Queen of the most holy Rosary: Queen of the most holy Rosary, pray for us. (indulgence of 500 days; Raccolta no. 399)
Thank you.
Will do

:pray1: Count on me too

Will try to remember. Want to do this! Remind me Dymphna, Non nobis. Thank you.

To make the First Friday Devotion, let us prepare ...
As we prepare ourselves to worthily celebrate this First Friday, let us think of these things. Let us think of how much Our Lord has loved us – so much so that He gave up His life for us. Let us recall how much He has given of Himself in the Sacrament of His Body and Blood, to renew us, refresh us and to bring us eternal life and nourishment.
Let us think of something else as well.For in the Third Great Apparition to St Margaret Mary, Our Lord states that this incredible gift of the Eucharist is so often rejected – and even despised – by those grown cold in their hearts. Let us not forget this tragedy.
So how do we behave on this First Friday? Do we need confession, to worthily receive His Body and Blood in Holy Communion?
In what mind do we present ourselves for Holy Mass? How do we acknowledge His coming to us, as the Priest utters the words of consecration and Our Lord becomes present on the altar?
Let us look at how we approach the altar, to receive our Blessed Lord in His Sacrament. And once received, how do we express our gratitude?
The Sacred Heart of Jesus appeared to St. Margaret Mary, speaking of the ingratitude we men offer Him, in return for His ardent and passionate love for us. We have been ungrateful regarding His Sacred Heart, which is enflamed with passionate love. For it is, as the Litany of the Sacred Heart states, a 'Burning furnace of Charity'.
As we begin the First Friday Devotions, let us look to the words of the Sacred Heart when He said:
My Divine Heart, is so inflamed with love for men ... that, being unable any longer to contain within Itself the flames of Its burning Charity, It must needs spread them abroad ... and manifest Itself to them (mankind) in order to enrich them with the precious treasures which I discover to thee, and which contain graces of sanctification and salvation necessary to withdraw them from the abyss of perdition.
Let us not forget these words of burning love for us and worthily receive Holy Communion each First Friday, being fully aware of all that Our Lord is asking of us, in terms of reparation and gratitude. Let us also be aware of the graces that are bestowed upon those who worthily receive Him in Holy Communion. With all this in mind, let us approach each and every First Friday, reverently, gratefully and with love.
Cor Jesu, fornax ardens caritatis, miserere nobis.

QuoteSince the promise of No. 12 refers to receiving Communion, and not to attending Mass, I think it is safe to say that reception of Communion at the Good Friday Celebration of the Lord's Passion is more than sufficient to comply with the requirements of this devotional practice. At the same time, when Mass is available on the other first Fridays, it is always preferable to communicate within Mass if possible.
This is not a traditional site, but I expect them to be accurate about this sort of thing.

Maybe it would be a good idea to re-consecrate the forum to the Sacred Heart of Jesus?
This year the feast of the Sacred Heart is on Friday, June 11. This coming Friday.
How will the consecration be done? Is a member of the Clergy needed to perform the consecration?

There is a consecration prayer that Kaesekopf posted on this first post of this thread back in 2013. Back then he just asked the members to pray the consecration prayer on the feast of the Sacred Heart. So I guess we'd do the same on the feast this year, this coming Friday. Here's a link back to the first post of the thread with the consecration prayer. Thanks TheSaintsAreComing.

Edit to add;
I must say that it is a beautiful consecration prayer.

QuoteMost sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us humbly prostrate before Thine altar [if not in a church, replace "before Thine altar" with "in Thy presence"]. We are Thine, and Thine we wish to be; but, to be more surely united with Thee, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to Thy most Sacred Heart.
Many indeed have never known Thee; many too, despising Thy precepts, have rejected Thee. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to Thy sacred Heart. Be Thou King, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken Thee, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned Thee; grant that they may quickly return to Thy Father's house lest they die of wretchedness and hunger.
Be Thou King of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof, and call them back to the harbor of truth and unity of faith, so that there may be but one flock and one Shepherd.
Be Thou King of all those who are still involved in the darkness of idolatry or of Islamism, and refuse not to draw them into the light and kingdom of God. Turn Thine eyes of mercy towards the children of the race, once Thy chosen people: of old they called down upon themselves the Blood of the Savior; may it now descend upon them a laver of redemption and of life.
Grant, O Lord, to Thy Church assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give peace and order to all nations, and make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: "Praise be to the divine Heart that wrought our salvation; to it be glory and honor for ever." Amen.
Tomorrow is the First Friday of July 2021.

Day off tomorrow so I am going (God willing) to First Friday devotions. Been too long, here in Canada with our lockdowns.
Tomorrow is the First Friday of August 2021.
I am going to get the five first Saturdays done before year end. No reason to put it off.

Excellent idea, MAXIM! I did not realize that there are only 5 months left to the end of the year! WOW! Time really goes by way too fast.
Perfect timing! :thumbsup: I agree with you.
May Our Lady help you get it done.
God Bless you! :pray3:

Clearly there is something wrong with 2022. Perhaps it has too many twos in it. :)
This coming Friday is the First Friday of March 2022.
This coming Friday is the First Friday of April 2022.
It is the month of the Sacred Heart, and tomorrow (Friday) is a First Friday!
Please seriously consider making the First Friday devotions a part of your life! Attend Holy Mass, make a good confession, make a Communion of reparation, all for nine first Fridays in a row!
