Making or renewing the consecration of their heart to Our Lord Jesus through the heart of His Most Blessed Mother is a marvelous devotional to do this Lenten season.  We’re doing this in addition to the Novena for Religious Freedom and the book reading over at Suscipio.

We’ll be using the St. Louis-Marie De Montfort’s prayers and meditations from the book, The True Devotion To the Blessed Virgin published by Baronius Press Limited, 2008, ISBN # 978-1-905574-36-0. Amazon.com has a kindle version you can get instantly!

I found this clip of a Bob and Penny Lord program on St. Louis-Marie De Montfort on youtube:

EWTN has a nice page about St. Louis-Marie De Montfort.  This page includes links to documents on the writings of this Saint and an audio program.

See also this link:  Consecrate this Lent to Jesus through Mary, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.   This link has a marvelous wealth of information about why this particular period of time is so special.  ONLY time in our lifetimes when the dates for the Total Consecration fall within the period of Lent, starting on Ash Wednesday and making the consecration on the Feast of the Annunciation.

We will begin prayers on February 22, 2012 (Ash Wednesday) and end with the feast of the Annunciation (March 26, 2012) as the Day of Consecration.
