Weekly Reflection – 02/28/21

My dear family,

I would like to strongly encourage each of you to consecrate yourselves to Mary this year. Our Lord calls her our eternal Mother and Mary wants to protect us and keep us close to Her Son’s Most Sacred. Here is a beautiful Consecration prayer to Mary. When we give ourselves to Mary she takes us immediately to Her Son, while pleading for us at His side so we may receive His Divine life. Mary is the mother of all living and desires you and me to live in freedom from sin and death.

In Christ, through Mary, Father Steiner

Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary

Prayer of Consecration

As the Father has chosen you, O Mary, to be His Immaculate Child, Joseph’s spouse, and the Mother of His beloved Son and of the whole Church, in full communion with the Holy Spirit, so we choose you this day as Mother and Queen of our whole family; and we consecrate to you our souls and our bodies, all that we do and all that we have, without exception. Envelop each one of us with your most maternal mercy. Teach us to love Jesus and the Father always more, and in and through them, to love one another in the Holy Spirit, discovering one another ever more profoundly in the light of Jesus, respecting one another, and choosing one another each day with a more divine and simple love. O Mary, grant that each of us fulfill the Father’s will each day in a more personal gift of ourselves., so that our whole family may bear witness, in the midst of the world, to the love of Jesus victorious over evil.

Amen

Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus. Amen.
