Today, we join the Bishops of the United States as they lead us in consecrating the United States of America to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Parishes and individuals around the country are invited and strongly encouraged to unite in prayer on this historic occasion, with this Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus written for the consecration.

Three Hearts. One invitation.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus teaches us to love.
The Immaculate Heart of Mary teaches us to trust.
The Most Chaste Heart of St. Joseph teaches us to remain faithful.

As these special feast days draw near, let us place our families, our worries, and our future in their loving care.

❤️ Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I place my trust in You.

Do you know how to pray the novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus? It is so powerful!

Saint Padre Pio prayed the Efficacious Novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus every day for the intentions of those who requested his prayers.

Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque, the saint most known for spreading devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, wrote this prayer.

During Padre Pio's life, this prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus was considered one of his "secret weapons," in which countless people testified to miracles that occurred through his prayers.

The faithful join in praying the Efficacious Novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus nine days before the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. (This solemnity is always 19 days after Pentecost.)

This year, the novena begins on June 3, 2026. However, it may be prayed at any time throughout the year.

Efficacious Novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

I. O my Jesus, you have said: “Truly I say to you, ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened to you.” Behold, I knock, I seek, and ask for the grace of [insert your intention.]

Our Father…Hail Mary…Glory be to the Father…
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

II. O my Jesus, you have said: “Truly I say to you, if you ask anything of the Father in my name, He will give it to you.” Behold, in your name, I ask the Father for the grace of [insert your intention.]

Our Father…Hail Mary…Glory be to the Father…
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

III. O my Jesus, you have said: “Truly I say to you, heaven and earth will pass away but my words will not pass away.” Encouraged by your infallible words I now ask for the grace of [insert your intention.]

Our Father…Hail Mary…Glory be to the Father…
Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you.

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, for whom it is impossible not to have compassion on the afflicted, have pity on us miserable sinners, and grant us the grace which we ask of you, through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, your tender mother and ours.

Conclude with the Hail, Holy Queen and add: Saint Joseph, foster father of Jesus, pray for us.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in you! ❤️‍🔥
