I have done this Consecration for the past 13 years. So this will be my 14th time making it. (I think, unless I'm adding the years wrong!) Every year I get something different out of it, something wonderful! The first year, it was really hard, and half way through, I was thinking "why am I doing this?" but then at the end, it all comes together and makes sense. Each consecration is set to start on a certain date to end on a feast day. I picked this one, and it starts on July 13th and ends on the Feast day of the Assumption. I cannot even begin to explain all the graces that follow this consecration, but they are numerous. Get ready and please do this with me this year! It goes for 33 days. It progresses gradually, in prayers. The 3rd week being the hardest, adding a rosary to the prayers. You can order it here. Or you can read online here.
This is my 2nd favorite day of the year, right after Divine Mercy Sunday. Please do this with me this year to Jesus through Mary.
HI Jamie!
ReplyDeleteI will do this with you! My first time I did the consecration was during that same time frame - I loved it!
I still have one of your T.C. books with your maiden name on the cover. It was with my mom's books - you must have given it to her to use. I will use that book as I do this T.C. with you!
Hope you are doing well and staying cool. Your fairy picnic was DARLING and your friend looks familiar to me.
We had a good trip to see all the relatives this past 4 days, but we are all very tired!
Love and prayers,
Sarah
Thanks for posting this Jamie!
ReplyDeleteMy feast day is the Visitation! This was my fourth year? You are right, every time you get something else from it!! I've had many wonderful graces from Mary since!
ReplyDeleteYou'll be in my prayers during this time. My mum is supposed to be doing this this time around. Her birthday is the Assumption - so it would be quite special!
Totus Tuus!
Jaime,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for posting this. I've wanted to do this for a long time and already ordered the prayers. I just needed a little encouragement.
Yes, I will definitely join you on this. I feel strongly that Jesus and the Blessed Mother are calling me to do this consecration.
May God Bless you.
Love,
Maria
I love your morning prayer view! I am in awe of your beautiful porch. I have always LOVED front porches. They are so peaceful, so welcoming, and remind me of my grandparents and that era. My dream house always has a front porch on it.
ReplyDeleteHi Jamie! I found your blog via Margaret. :-) I'd love to join this Consecration with you! I've wanted to do it several times, but never been able to do it alone. I love the fact that it ends on the Assumption. Your blog is just wonderful. You have been so steadfast in your love for the Blessed Mother. No wonder you have been so blessed!
