Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Two days from now, on Sept. 8, we will celebrate the Feast of The Nativity of Mary. By God’s Grace, hopefully we can begin a journey of 33 days, on that Feast Day, sharing parts of St. Louis de Montfort’s little book - “True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin”.(Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin | EWTN) (See:Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin | EWTN)
Some who have read this book may want to renew their Consecration to Jesus through Mary also, following the pattern St. Louis explains in his book. This morning I began to re-read Part 1, Chapter 1 and decided to post paragraph 55:
You can read this book at: Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin | EWTN
God willing tomorrow’s,excerpt from this book will further encourage us to celebrate our Mother’s “Birthday” on Sept 8 and set out on our journey to give ourselves totally to Jesus through Mary. Come Holy Spirit, fill us as you filled Mary with Jesus. Amen.

Finally, God in these times wishes His Blessed Mother to be more known, loved and honored than she has ever been. This will certainly come about if the elect, by the grace and light of the Holy Spirit, adopt the interior and perfect pefect practice of the devotion which I shall later unfold. Then they will clearly see that beautiful Star of the Sea, as much as Faith allows. Under her guidance they will come safely to port in spite of storms and pirates. They will perceive the splendors of this service as subjects and slaves of love. They will experience her motherly guidance and affection for her children. They will love her tenderly and will appreciate how full of compassion she is and how much they satnd in need of her help. In all circumstances they will have recourse to her as their advocate and mediatrix, with Jesus Christ. They will see clearly that she is the safest, easiest, shortest, and most perfect way of approaching Jesus and will surrender themselves to her, body and soul, without reserve in order to belong entirely to Jesus.
