In a letter that was urgently sent to all bishops of the United States, Pope Francis invited the bishops and their priests throughout the world to be a part of the Act of Consecration of Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
The Pope will lead the Act of Consecration of Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary on March 25, the Feast of the Annunciation, at St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican. The act of consecration will be presided at the same time by Cardinal Konrad Krajewski at the same time in Fatima, Portugal.
The letter was sent by Reverend Michael J.K. Fuller, General Secretary of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, and signed by Archbishop Christophe Pierre, the Apostolic Nuncio, to the United States.
The letter included an extended invitation to diplomatic corps members in Washington D.C. to attend a Mass offered by the Archbishop of Washington, Cardinal Wilton Gregory, at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception at noon on Friday, March 25.
