HERE'S THE ANSWER

A prayer's alteration
Some time ago I read in your paper that the Pope had ordered that certain expressions should be omitted from the " Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus " as these expressions might give offence to Jews and other non-Catholics. But I have since heard the prayer recited still with the same expressions.
ilitY a decree of the Sacred Peni1-, tentiary of July 18. 1959. this prayer was altered to exclude any direct reference to Jews. Muslims or other non-Catholic bodies. If the prayer is still being used in its old form in some churches. this is presumably due to an oversight on the part of some parish priests.
