Catholic YouTuber Gabi Castillo got me onto St. Kolbe's Militia of the Immaculata and this book. I followed his devotions that went along with each preparation day.
I made my concecration on Tuesday, Feb 11, 2025, The Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament.
Ave Maria!
Saint Maxamillion Mary Kolbe, pray for us!
Our Lady of Mercy, Queen of the Universe, pray for us!
A beautiful booklet to learn more about Our Lady as you prepare for an Act of Consecration to Her Immaculate Heart! At the end of the book, you consecrate yourself to her while having a better understanding of who she is and while having a deeper love and appreciation for her!
I have done Louis de Montfort’s True Devotion consecration multiple times. I love the poetry of those readings. However, they can be long, which can be difficult is you are trying to read them after Mass or in Adoration. THIS consecration, written by St Maximilian Kolbe, condenses that beauty and love for Our Lady into shorter readings coupled with beautiful prayers. This is a gorgeous consecration—one that I have used four times throughout 2014 (including this Feb - March entry). It is December as I write this review.
I HIGHLY recommend this consecration. May our Blessed Mother hold you close, St Joseph protect you, and St Maximilian Kolbe guide your steps always toward the Immaculata and Her Son.
