Morning Offering to the Sacred Heart

O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer Thee my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings of this day, in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I offer them for all the intentions of Thy Sacred Heart: the salvation of souls, reparation for sin, and the reunion of all Christians. I offer them for the intentions of our bishops and of all Apostles of Prayer, and in particular for those recommended by our Holy Father this month. Amen.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust in Thee. Amen.

History

The Morning Offering is the central prayer of the Apostleship of Prayer, founded by Fr. François-Xavier Gautrelet, S.J., in 1844. This movement, later known as the Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network, encourages the faithful to offer each day to the Sacred Heart of Jesus for the intentions of the Holy Father and the needs of the world.

How to pray it
