Consecration to Mary
 
LIVE Online Preparation
Meet us on ZOOM! Tuesdays,

​​May 5th – June 2nd
 2 Series: 10- 11:30am OR 7-8:30pm
To Jesus Through Mary, Our Mother of Mercy -A Call to the those seeking more!
Fr. Faccenda spoke of the need for complete confidence in Mary:  “Consecration is to put our hand in her hand, to grip it strongly, because it is the hand of one who is Mother and Mediatrix, help and hope. Then, let her love make us pure as she is, while by her example and word she repeats to us: ‘Do whatever he tells you’”
While there is much to learn, our real hope is that you will be renewed in your desire to give our Lord Jesus the very best, that is, to become a saint with the care and intercession of Mary, Our Mother of Mercy.

WHY TOTAL CONSECRATION to MARY?
The essence of the MI spirituality was to entrust all to the Mother of God. Fr. Maximillian Kolbe often spoke of the totality and the boundlessness of the Consecration to Mary, the Immaculata; he repeatedly affirmed that he wanted to live, to work and to suffer for the Immaculata. He viewed this consecration as a transformation: “She will make you like herself.”
Consecration is an intentional commitment. To do so, you will be embarking on a lifelong journey of formation with a multitude of those who have gone before you and will follow you in step.
As you take these first steps on the path to Consecration, you will be offered many insights into living out your Consecration through your Baptismal Call. In addition to learning of the life, spirituality, and movement of St. Maximillian Kolbe and the story of the Miraculous Medal, the focus will reflect how to:
  • Recognize our need for Salvation, the centrality of Christ, and Mary’s role 
  • Accept Mary as a Mother given to us from the Cross 
  • Offer ourselves to Christ through Mary in return for the Gift of Salvation and Mary’s Motherhood 
  • Share the good news of Redemption and Mary’s Love for all her children
