the notion of "offer up"

The Message of Fatima

It was in this same spirit that the Angel spoke to the children in 1916: “Offer up everything in your power as a sacrifice to the Lord in reparation for the sins by which He is offended, and in supplication for the conversion of sinners . . . More than all else, accept and bear with resignation the sufferings that God may send you.”

Excerpt from the "Regula Sancti Michaelis" (Constitution) Order of the Legion of St. Michael

19. Mortification in its fundamental essence is Self-sacrifice, Self-denial, and Self-discipline. It is Morte–death– death to the Self. Out of love for Christ and in recognition of our own inadequacy, we must sacrifice ourselves, give ourselves up to Christ. Acts of Mortification are thus behaviors, devotions, and activities that assist us in this offering up of ourselves sacrificially to our Lord and Savior. It is as Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me."

CANON XI.

Weeping takes place without the gate of the oratory; and the offender standing there ought to implore the faithful as they enter to offer up prayer on his behalf.
