Total Consecration to Jesus Through Mary
By St. Louis de Montfort · Published by TAN Books
Overview
Total Consecration to Jesus Through Mary presents the timeless spiritual masterpiece of St. Louis de Montfort, whose 33-day preparation has transformed the lives of countless Catholics seeking a deeper union with Jesus Christ. Grounded in Sacred Scripture and the Church's rich Marian tradition, this classic devotional teaches that the surest, quickest, and most perfect path to Christ is through the loving guidance of His Blessed Mother.
Through daily prayers, meditations, Scripture passages, and reflections, readers are gradually led to surrender themselves completely to Jesus by entrusting every aspect of their lives to Mary's maternal care. Rather than diminishing devotion to Christ, this consecration draws souls more deeply into His Sacred Heart by imitating Mary's perfect obedience, humility, and love. Whether making the consecration for the first time or renewing it each year, this enduring guide remains one of the most influential works of Catholic spirituality ever written.

Beautiful Consecration to Jesus thru Mary
I ordered this because it looked very thorough. I did the consecration 25 years ago and wanted to renew it in this Jubilee year. I was looking for the correct prayers and reflections and this seems to be it! I could only find one of my books from long ago and it didn’t quite seem like it covered everything from what I remember. This particular book seems to have all the prayers, litanies, and reflections from “The Imitation of Christ” all in one place. I am very happy with it.

Great book!

I just completed the consecration!
I love this method. It takes dedication and it is well worth it. During the last week, I had difficulty and was getting discouraged but it was clearly the devil that did not want me to complete it. I consecrated my life to Christ through His Blessed Mother yesterday on the Feast Day of Fatima (May 13, 2021). I am very happy! I have no complaints about the book. The Holy Spirit definitely will enlighten you as you read through it. God Bless St. Lous de Montfort for providing us with this gift. God Bless!

Highly recommend
Loved the book. Would highly recommend the spiritual meditations. I used three holy cards to mark my places (prayers at beginning of meditation, daily mediation, and ending prayers).
