If incense is used, the Priest puts some into the thurible. After this, the Deacon who is to proclaim the
Gospel, bowing profoundly before the Priest, asks for the blessing, saying in a low voice:
Your blessing, Father.
The Priest says in a low voice:
May the Lord be in your heart and on your lips,
that you may proclaim his Gospel worthily and well,
in the name of the Father, and of the Son, X and of the Holy Spirit.
The Deacon signs himself with the Sign of the Cross and replies:

Cleanse my heart and my lips, almighty God,
that I may worthily proclaim your holy Gospel.
The Deacon, or the Priest, then proceeds to the ambo, accompanied, if appropriate, by ministers with
incense and candles.

they went up according to festival custom.
After they had completed its days, as they were returning,
the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem,
but his parents did not know it.
Thinking that he was in the caravan,
they journeyed for a day
and looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances,
but not finding him,
they returned to Jerusalem to look for him.
After three days they found him in the temple,

For truly even to earths ends you have done great things
and extended your abundant mercy from age to age:
when you looked on the lowliness of your handmaid,
you gave us through her the author of our salvation,
your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.
Through him the host of Angels adores your majesty

Adapted for our 8 June 2013 National/Philippine Act of Consecration/Entrustment to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Shortened and directed to or
present context, from the official act of consecration written by Blessed John Paul II himself for 25 March 1954, Feast of the Annunciation. It was
meant to be offered by himself and all the bishops of the Catholic Church. Our Philippine hierarchy, led by Cardinals Jaime Sin of Manila and Ricardo
Vidal of Cebu, in the name of all of us in the Church in the Philippines, took part in this solemn act of offering.
When a briefer form of this consecration is to be recited, simply recite paragraphs 2, 3 and 5. Then, add here the Act of Consecration approved by the
CBCP through Archbishop Romulo Valles in the year 2000 for the Year of Two Hearts.
