One of the criticisms of the recent announcement that Russia would be consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary was that it did not include all of the bishops of the world joining Pope Francis in unison.
Now, a letter from the Apostolic Nuncio to the United States has said that Pope Francis will invite the bishops of the world to join him on Friday March 25th.
While we await word on who is set to join him, the Irish bishops have responded to an appeal to join the consecration by confirming that they will do so on Friday. This was confirmed in a tweet by the Primate of All Ireland, Archbishop Eamon Martin.
