This spell blesses an area with positive energy. All Charisma checks made to turn undead within this area gain a +3 sacred bonus. Undead entering this area suffer minor disruption, giving them a –1 sacred penalty on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws.

If the consecrated area contains a permanent fixture dedicated to the character's deity, pantheon, or aligned higher power, the modifiers listed above are doubled (+6 sacred bonus to turning, –2 penalty to undead rolls).
