PREFACE: This Marian program has but one purpose, to imbue the little ones with a genuine devotion to Mary. Therefore, it is not intended as a pious practice for May or Octoer. It is rather a copying of Mary- a way of life. It is the De Montfort Method simplified for young minds.

Leading the Little Ones to Mary

Sister Mary Lelia, S.S.N.D.

To find the grace of God, we must discover Mary. Described as "authentic Marian spirituality" by Pope John Paul II, this short but powerful work will lead you on the path to perfect consecration to Jesus Christ through the hands of his mother, Mary--for she "has a precise place in the plan of salvation." In this down-to-earth handbook, Saint Louis de Montfort provides excellent recommendations for both interior and exterior practices of devotion, and carefully explains the wonderful effects that this consecration can bring about in your life. This little-known devotion truly frees the soul, giving it the freedom of the children of God. You will find many fruits of grace. You will be surprised. And you will be filled with joy. "You must use this secret for your own growth in holiness and for the saving of your soul. It will help you only if you use it. The more you use it the more it will help you." This is a message desperately needed in our day, and for this reason--and at the request of the Montfort Missionaries--St. Louis' classic work has been adapted for modern times by popular contemporary journalist, Eddie Doherty. This audio edition of The Secret of Mary is read by Father Jim Duffy, a long-time priest of the Madonna House Apostlate who is has dedicated all of his priestly life to making consecration to Jesus through Mary known. His own great love for the Mother of God shines through this presentation.

Total Consecration

St. Louis de Montfort was an inspired and effective missionary not only because he was a skilled and fiery preacher and profound theologian of the spiritual life. He also made great use of his considerable artistic talents, one of which was a poetic skill which he pressed into service for the composition of cantiques (hymns) to use during his missions. Song was so important to Fr. de Montfort both as a man as well as a preacher that he composed over 160 hymns. The full collection of his cantiques has not been available in English translation until now. Thanks to the study and labor of Fr. J. Patrick Gaffney, SMM, and his team of translators, this book (previously titled God Alone II) contains the entire collection of our Founder's cantiques, available in English for the first time. (Paperback Edition)

   On December 11, 1965, three days after the close of Vatican II, Frank Duff, a lay observer at the Council, was ushered into a private audience with Pope Paul IV.  Mr. Duff, the Holy Father said, I want to thank you for your services to the Church and also to express appreciation for all that the Legion of Mary has done...The Legion of Mary has served the Church faithfully and the Church will protect the Legion.   Frank Duff...The Legion of Mary...two names that will be forever linked together in the Church's history of the Lay Apostolate of the 20th century...two names spiritually related to St. Louis de Montfort and his apostolic form of Marian spirituality, leading souls to Jesus through Mary. In writing this candid, very personal and unpretentious biography of a very close friend and countryman, Father Robert Bradshaw has rendered a priceless service to those who want to know what this man, Frank Duff, was like and some of the people and events that helped shape his long and brillliant career in the serrvice of God and his fellowman.

Frank Duff: Founder of the Legion of Mary

Bradshaw, R.

The writings of St. Louis Marie de Montfort are of great interest today for many reasons. First, because they are centered on Christ, Eternal and Incarnate Wisdom. Second, because they focus attention on the importance of Mary's role in the Mystery of Christ and of the Church-a subject of renewed interest both within the Catholic Church and other Christian churches. Third, because they embody a form of "Marian Spirituality" that goes far beyond mere Marian devotion, as Pope John Paul II pointed out in his Marian Year encyclical: St. Louis Marie de Montfort "proposes consecration to Christ through the hands of Mary, as an effective means for Christians to live faithfully their baptismal commitments." Fourth, because they reflect the thinking and pastoral experiences of a man of vision whose writings have a definite prophetic ring relative to the latter times. They likewise reflect his unusually profound understanding of the Scriptures concerning Christ, Eternal and Incarnate Wisdom, as well as his own personal discovery of Mary, the "easy, short, perfect and sure way" to obtain full possession of Divine Wisdom in our souls. In a sense, we can say that his writings have revolutionized the whole concept of true devotion to Mary by presenting it as a way of life... This is the softcover edition. The hardcover is now out of print.
