O Immaculate Heart of Mary, Queen of heaven and earth, and tender Mother of humanity, in accordance with your ardent wish made known at Fatima, I consecrate to you myself, my brothers and sisters of the Diocese of Salt Lake City, and the whole human race. 

We commit to you all the members of this local Church, beginning with the weakest ones, from the unborn to the sick, the disabled and the elderly.

We commit to you our families, our children, our young people, the single, the widowed and the lonely.

We entrust to your Immaculate Heart especially hurt and broken families, for those who seek the meaning of life but who are getting lost in a world of confusion, immoral influences, and distorted ideas.

Reign over us and teach us how to make the Heart of Jesus reign and triumph in us and around us, as it has reigned and triumphed in you!

Reign over us, dearest Mother, that we may be your children in prosperity and in adversity, in joy and in sorrow, in health and sickness, in life and in death!

O most compassionate Heart of Mary, Queen of Virgins, watch over our minds and hearts, and preserve them from the deluge of impurity which you lamented so sorrowfully at Fatima. We want to be pure like you. We want to atone for the many crimes committed against Jesus and you. We want to call down upon our city, our country and the whole world the peace of God in justice and charity!

Help us as we resolve to live according to the Gospel, to fulfil the Commandments of God and those of the Church, to receive the sacraments worthily, especially the sacraments of Reconciliation and the Eucharist, and to contribute to the building up of the Kingdom of your divine Son, in union with his most Sacred Heart.
