Entrustment to
the Holy Trinity I, ___________________________________, entrust myself completely--body, mind, and spirit--to You, Most Holy Trinity. Through Your eternal communion of Persons and Your self-giving love, I am enabled to become the person You created me to be. For Your glory and the good of humanity, I surrender myself with full confidence to You as Merciful Love and commit my way during my earthly pilgrimage to the following code of life: + Communion with the Blessed Trinity through the Cross and Resurrection of Jesus the Lord in the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church, using the Church’s means for growing in full union with God: preeminently the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass (especially the Sunday Eucharist), the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and prayer; + Dedication to Mary, the Mother of God and woman of faith, as Our Lady of Guadalupe, and reverence towards women as vessels of human life; reliance on St. Joseph, the silent and just man of the Gospels, St. George, Pier Giorgio Frassati (“man of the Beatitudes”), and all protectors of the vulnerable; + Cultivating a noble mind and heart, (1) seeking to know and embrace the truth in all its objective fullness and splendor—especially contemplating the Face of Christ as glimpsed in the eight Beatitudes¹, and (2) loving, never using, others; + Fitness of body and spirit, dedicating my whole person to serving God in others, especially strong marriages and families (and supporting those wounded by family life); + Communion with those who are seeking to lead honorable lives, and with all persons of faith and good will, who are striving by God’s grace to build and sustain a civilization of love and culture of life. ¹Poor in spirit, mourning, meek, hungering and thirsting after justice, merciful, pure in heart, making peace, persecuted for justice’s sake and on the Lord’s account (Matthew 5: 1-12) |
