Family Consecration to Jesus Through Mary: 33 Days of Preparation with Saint Louis Marie de Montfort - Paperback

by Donna-Marie Cooper O'Boyle (Author)

Saint Faustina warned parents that praying for their children is not enough. That's why so many conscientious parents take the further step of consecrating their children to Jesus through Mary, thereby defending them from evil and paving their way to Heaven.

This book walks you through the simple process of doing just that. Its informed pages give you detailed instructions to help you lead your family (ages seven and up) through each of the 33 mini-retreat days recommended by Saint Louis de Montfort, the beloved eighteenth-century priest and confessor who tirelessly preached that Jesus is not known well enough because Mary is not known well enough.

Adapted for the often less-than-ideal prayer circumstances of families -- particularly those with young children -- these 33 brief, stress-free daily spiritual exercises and family activities bring adults and children greater knowledge of Jesus through Mary, and a more fervent love of both.

Don't delay. There's no book more immediately beneficial than this and no time better than now to seize the day and help all the members of your family -- young and old -- to consecrate their lives to Jesus through Mary.
