“O Maria Santissima, who in your dear Image of Aparecida spread countless benefits over all of Brazil; I, although unworthy of belonging to the number of your sons and daughters, but full of the desire to participate in the benefits of your mercy, prostrate at your feet, I consecrate my understanding to you, so that I may always think of the love you deserve. I consecrate you my tongue, so that I may always praise you and propagate your devotion. I consecrate my heart to you, that after God I may love you over all things. Receive me, O incomparable Queen, in the said number of your sons and daughters. Take me under your protection. I helped myself in all my spiritual and temporal needs and, above all, at the time of my death. Bless me, O Heavenly Mother, and with your powerful intercession strengthen me in my weakness, so that, serving you faithfully in this life, I may praise you, love you and give you thanks in heaven, for all time. eternity. So be it."
