Total Consecration to Mary according to the Spirituality of St. Maximilian Kolbe and Franciscan Charism
Have you ever considered consecrating yourself to Mary?
Given to us as our Mother by Jesus from the cross, Mary is our greatest intercessor and always leads us to Jesus. Through total consecration we become an instrument in her immaculate hands to help spread her Son’s Kingdom throughout the world. Wherever the Immaculata enters, Jesus enters; and grace, conversion and growth in holiness are obtained. In effect, Mary has been chosen to be the vehicle and instrument of God’s mercy and grace — all graces come to us from The Sacred Heart of Jesus through the immaculate and merciful hands of the Immaculata.
The spirit of the MI is the spirit of continual conversion. When lived in the spirit of willingness and humility, the Immaculata will elevate our natural gifts and inspire us to holiness and fruitful service within the Church. Join us at an upcoming class and explore the deeper meaning of Total Consecration to Mary, and the Militia of the Immaculata.
Join us as we discuss:
• Why we consecrate ourselves to Mary
• The Role of Mary in the Church
• St. Maximilian Kolbe and the founding of the Militia of the Immaculata (MI)
• How to prepare for Marian Consecration
