Please provide your exact reasons for the merger. As is, there are different acts with different prayers to the Blessed Virgin vs Jesus. I see no advantage for the merger. The disadvantage is all the effort in doinig it and discussing it. There are a whole pile of suggestions for mergers, and the amchair observers who who suggest it usualy don't end up doing the work to get it right, and I end up doing it.

In reference to 1st Friday of 9 consecutive months, I find: "On these days, a person is to attend Holy Mass and receive communion." What is the citation for this reference to Mass? If 1st Friday of April falls on Good Friday, there can be no Mass, but a change made before Vatican Council II was that Communion WAS to be distributed to the faithful on Good Friday. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.82 (talk) 18:10, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
Is the subject of the article a proper noun? The article has "Act of Reparation" in the first sentence but the title is "Acts of reparation." Regardless, this page should be WP:moved per WP:singular. --JFH (talk) 21:13, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
I've looked all over the place, and I cannot find a single source which talks about "Acts of Reparation" as if they were a class of rites/prayers/whatever. It seems to me that someone has taken a bunch of similarly named prayers and worked out a theory about them. Mangoe (talk) 22:21, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
Those who view the long course of history and development of doctrine in the Catholic Church may see this as a time-bound piece: even catechisms reflect the Church's understanding at one point in history. Scholars are more ready today to distinguish between notions of God that are rooted in the earlier Hebrew scriptures and understanding coming from the revelation of Jesus Christ. They are more careful to distinguish metaphor from legal prescripts, pointing out that in the New Testament no one is said to receive the "price of our redemption": this is better understood as a metaphor describing the depth of God's love, where the Father sent the Son to prove the Father's love for us.
