St. Lawrence group to begin 33 Days to Morning Glory July 13

Mary Kennedy is leading a group at St. Lawrence Catholic Church in Tampa to consecrate to Jesus through Mary on August 15. She is excited to have 15 people already say "yes." If you would like to join the great folks at St. Lawrence or start your own group, please contact me at jkmuss@gmail.com

July 13 and July 20 are both upcoming start dates. Many people like to do a small group over the summer to get a feel for how it all works and then roll it out parish-wide in the fall/winter.

Consoling the Heart of Jesus by Fr. Michael Gaitley

Consoling the Heart of Jesus is now available from Lighthouse Catholic Media.
CLICK HERE TO ORDER THE BOOK ALONE for just $13.46 (retail $14.95)

Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, has given us a very special gift in his thoughtful and prayerful "Do-It-Yourself Retreat." He brings together several spiritual traditions and blends them in the pattern of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius. We will find inspiration in the quotations from the saints that he gathers carefully and in his deep, but humble, understanding of the principles of holiness that they proclaim. This is a good way for a soul to begin the journey in responding to the call to embrace the Divine Mercy of the Lord.

Fr. Mitch Pacwa, SJ: "This book is a form of a weekend retreat accessible at the beginning stages of a simple way to holiness. These hearts are "restless until they rest in Thee, Lord," and this book guides them on a journey to resting in God."

By Betsy Bowser

I am so blessed to have been able to lead a 33 Days to Morning Glory group retreat at St. Sylvester Catholic Church in Gulf Breeze, FL.  Above is a photo taken on our Consecration Day, Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, June 8, 2013.   We had two other members who were not available and consecrated privately:  Terri  and Pam.

Three of the people in this session have already (or are going to) contact others about 33 Days to Morning Glory retreats and I have been asked to do another group retreat for the parish with Consecration on October 7, Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary.  This request came from the coordinator of our adult faith formation programs; she wanted the retreat just before the start of all the Adult Faith Formation programs beginning in October.

I will also be contacting other parishes in my area to encourage them to do the group retreats.

Thank you for this deeply spiritual program; it has so helped me to be in a relationship with Mary, my Mother.

May God continue to bless Fr. Gaitley, MIC, and the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception.

The One Thing is Three by Fr. Michael Gaitley now available through Lighthouse Catholic Media!

The One Thing is Three is written for everyone. The conversational tone has an appeal that invites the reader into the journey of life. I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves the Church and seeks a deeper understanding of her teachings. Filled with references to Vatican II and Blessed Pope John Paul II, this book will enrich your belief in God's plan of salvation, and your love of the Most Holy Trinity.

Dr. Peter Kreeft: "WARNING: This book is dangerous. It brims with wisdom and wonder, and with enthusiastic and infectious joy. This is the very best example I have ever seen of the "New Evangelization" in the form of a book for contemporary Catholics."

See Fr. Leatherby explain how consecration to Jesus through Mary is bringing many souls to adoration and daily mass!

Fr. Leatherby is lighting a fire at his parish. Check out the YouTube to see how!

Fr. Jeremy Leatherby pastor of  Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Sacramento, CA explains how consecrating to Jesus through Mary has really jump started the faith and devotion of his parishioners. When he offered the consecration, he hoped 10-20 people would show up and over 250 came! On March 25 almost 300 souls consecrated. Two weeks later perpetual adoration started up at the parish! Daily Mass attendance has increased as well.

Does you parish need a jump start?

Consecration to Jesus through Mary is the surest, easiest, most perfect way, according to St. Louis de Montfort.

Please contact me today to get a group started in your parish!   jkmuss@gmail.com

WANT TO RENEW YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST IN THE YEAR OF FAITH?

START WITH HIS MOTHER!

Since the launch of the Hearts Afire program on Divine Mercy Sunday, 2012, there have been many groups forming at parishes around the country and in Canada.  In fact, since April 15, 2012, over 6,000 people have Consecrated themselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and hundreds more are planning to Consecrate this Lent and Spring.  It is AMAZING!

  

EXPLANATION

      The first part of the program is 33 Days to Morning Glory, an extraordinary 33-day journey to consecration to Jesus through Mary with four giants of Marian spirituality: St. Louis de Montfort, St. Maximilian Kolbe, Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta, and Blessed Pope John Paul II. This 6 week program is life changing! The Book masterfully summarizes their teaching, the retreat companion allows you to go deeper into your heart and relationship with Our Lady and her Son, the small group experience invites an amazing community dynamic, and the DVD presentation by Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC takes all of it and makes it simple to put into practice in everyday life.

BISHOP JENKY, DIOCESE OF PEORIA, IL AND ARCHBISHOP NAUMANN, ARCHDIOCESE OF KANSAS BOTH ENCOURAGED THEIR FLOCK TO DO THE 33 DAYS TO MORNING GLORY RETREAT, PRAISING THE IMPORTANCE AND VALUE OF CONSECRATION/RENEWING YOUR CONSECRATION FOR THE YEAR OF FAITH. 

EVANGELIZATION

      33 DMG is a do-it-yourself preparation for Marian Consecration, but since we are in the New Evangelization it is NOT a keep-it-to-yourself retreat. We need to spread the fire! And, that is happening. People who go through 33 DMG are turning and leading parish or home based groups all over the country, and the beauty of doing the program with the Retreat Companion, small group discussion, and DVDs is that the fruits are even GREATER and Christian communities are forming. Catholics are bonding, and in a time when society is doing its best to divide the Catholic Church. Things are moving FAST… but I guess if you let Mary take over, her Spouse is never far behind and He will hasten evangelization! Catholics are Evangelizing heart to heart and they don't even know it!   

SIMPLE AND INEXPENSIVE

    
Hearts Afire has made it very simple for those interested in Hearts Afire to form a group and run the 33 Days to Morning Glory retreat and at a fraction of the cost of most parish-based programs out there. Just contact Julie Musselman at jkmuss@gmail.com or 727-709-8649
