The Bishop of Shrewsbury will consecrate his diocese to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary on Sunday 13th October.
Bishop Mark Davies’s act of consecration will mirror Pope
Francis’s, the Pope will consecrate the world to Our Lady’s Immaculate Heart on
Sunday.
Bishop Davies said: “I see this act of entrustment to Mary’s
Immaculate Heart as an antidote to the rapid process of secularisation and
de-Christianisation in societies like our own.
“It points to the often overlooked priority in the
leadership of Pope Francis which constantly calls for our interior conversion,
a change at heart.”
Bishop Davies will say the prayer consecrating the Diocese
of Shrewsbury to Mary’s Immaculate
Heart following 10:45am Mass at Shrewsbury
cathedral.
Bishop Davies said: “Mary is the model of a life totally
consecrated to God, her pure heart (Mt.5:8) completely open to the call and
grace of God.
