Consecrate to Jesus, the Crucified One and his Sorrowful Mother
Our daily prayer, punctuated by the Liturgy of the Hours in communion with the whole Church, has its own characteristic that marks us and reminds us to whom we are consecrated. Thus once a day we commemorate in community prayer the shedding of the most precious blood of Jesus and the pain of Mary.
