APPEAL FOR PARDON

ACCEPT, O Lord, this appeal for pardon wrung from our afflicted and repentant souls, and in true sorrow for our sins and the sins of our relatives and friends.

We ask Pardon, O Divine Heart! for public scandals and evil living, for all who try to stir up disorder,f or all who corrupt Thy little ones, for those who spend their youth and fortune in sensuous living, for crimes in families, the sins of parents and children.

We ask Pardon, O Divine Heart! for those who traffic in public crime, for those who lead and lure souls to eternal damnation by riches and corrupt literature, for those who excite evil passions by immodest fashions, corrupt plays and degenerate art.

We ask Pardon, O Divine Heart! for all attacks against our Holy Father the Pope, for all organized disobedience against Holy Mother the Church, for all weak and straying souls, for sinners who resist grace, for all abuse of the Sacraments or any outrage against the Holy Eucharist. Amen.


ACT OF REPARATION

O GOOD JESUS, in gratitude for Thy many Graces, and in sorrow for many abuses of these Graces, I wish at this moment, both for myself, ever ungrateful, and for the world, ever criminal, to make an Act of Solemn Reparation.

Listen then, O merciful Savior of our souls, listen to these Acts of Faith, to these expressions of sorrow:
For the irreverence we have committed in the House of God I wish to make reparation.

For our careless and distracted attendance at Sunday Mass
I wish to make reparation.

For our lack of preparation before, and our poor thanksgiving after Holy Communion I wish to make reparation.

For our failure to co-operate with Thy daily Graces I wish to make reparation.

For our sins of pride, sensuality and of our entire life
I wish to make reparation.

For our bad example and the sins we have caused in others I wish to make reparation.

For our tragic indifference to Thy words of Holy Scripture and to the words of our Holy Father the Pope
I wish to make reparation.

 For the deplorable untruths of heresy, for all deserters and apostates
I wish to make reparation.

For the pleasure-seeking and money-mad profaners of the Lord's Day
I wish to make reparation.

For the sacrilegious treatment of Thy churches and Altars I wish to make reparation.

For the diabolical agents of Hell, ever seeking whom they may devour I wish to make reparation.

For the heartbreaking outrages committed by those who should be Thy greatest consolation
I wish to make reparation.
 
"O Love neglected! O Goodness but too little known."
