Padre Pio used to say this prayer every day for those whom he promised to pray for.
Say this part every day:

You may add this part on the Feast of the Sacred Heart:
Consecration of Our Marriage to the Sacred Heart of Jesus Through the Immaculate Heart of Mary
"Oh, Immaculate Heart of Mary, sure refuge of sinners and firm anchor of salvation, to you do we wish to consecrate today our marriage. In these times of great spiritual battle, of struggle between authentic family values and a worldly mentality of permissiveness, we ask you, our Mother and Teacher, to show us the way of true love, of commitment, of fidelity, of sacrifice and of service. By consecrating ourselves to you today, we beseech you to receive us into your Heart, to cover us with your Pure Mantel, to keep us in your maternal arms and to lead us on the sure path to the Sacred Heart of your Son, Jesus Christ.
You who are the Mother of Christ, we ask you to form and mold us so that we can both be living images of Jesus in our marriage, in our family, in the Church and in the world.
You who are Virgin and Mother, pour upon us and upon our marriage, the spirit of purity of heart, of mind and of body.
You who are our Spiritual Mother, help us to grow in the life of grace and of holiness. Do not permit us to fall into mortal sin nor to waste or misuse the graces won for us by your Son on the Cross.
You who are the Teacher of Souls, teach us to be docile like you. May we receive with obedience and gratefulness the Truth revealed by Christ in His Word and in the Church.
You who are the Mediatrix of all graces, be the Pure channel through which we receive in our lives and in our marriage, the graces of conversion, of love, of peace, of communication, of unity and of comprehension.
You who are the Intercessor before you Son, keep your merciful gaze upon us and upon our marriage. Draw close to your son imploring from Him, as You did in Cana, for the miracle of wine which we may lack.
You who are the Coredemtrix, teach us to be faithful to each other in moments of suffering and of cross. In times of trail, may we not seek our own well-being but rather the good of the other, remaining ever faithful to the commitment which we have received from God. May we always live these moments of sacrifice and struggle united to your Crucified Son.
In virtue of the union of the Immaculate Heart of Mary with the Sacred Heart of Christ, we pray that our marriage may be strengthen in unity, in love, in responsibility to our duties and in the generous self-offering of one to the other and to the children we will receive from Our Lord. May our home be a domestic sanctuary where we pray together and where we communicate with each other with joy and enthusiasm. May our marriage be for others, a visible sign of love and fidelity. We beseech you O Mother, in virtue of this consecration, that our marriage may be protected from all spiritual, physical or material evil. May your Immaculate Heart reign in our home so that Jesus Christ may be loved, heard and obeyed in our family. Sustained by His love and His grace, may we dispose ourselves to construct daily, the civilization of love: the Reign of the Two Hearts. Amen.

Consecration of the Family to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
Sacred Heart of Jesus, You made clear to Saint Margaret Mary Your desire of being King in Christian families. We today wish to proclaim Your most complete kingly dominion over our own family. We want to live in the future with Your life. We want to cause to flourish in our midst those virtues to which You have promised peace here below. We want to banish far from us the spirit of the world which You have cursed. You shall be King over our minds in the simplicity of our faith, and over our hearts by the wholehearted love with which they shall burn for You, the flame of which we will keep alive by the frequent reception of Your divine Eucharist. Be so kind, O divine Heart, as to preside over our assemblings, to bless our enterprises, both spiritual and temporal, to dispel our cares, to sanctify our joys, and to alleviate our sufferings. If ever one or other of us should have the misfortune to afflict You, remind him, O Heart of Jesus, that You are good and merciful to the penitent sinner. And when the hour of separation strikes, when death shall come to cast mourning into our midst, we will all, both those who go and those who stay, be submissive to Your eternal decrees. We shall console ourselves with the thought that a day will come when the entire family, reunited in heaven, can sing forever Your glories and Your mercies. May the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the glorious patriarch Saint Joseph present this consecration to You, and keep it in our minds all the days of our life. All glory to the Heart of Jesus, our King and our Father!Image: http://consecratedtomary.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/sacred-heart-of-jesus.gif
