“May the life of the Immaculate take possession of us ever more, day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment, and this without any limitation, growing, in the same way, in every soul that exists and will exist for all time: behold our beloved ideal.”

Daily Renewal of Total Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary:

Immaculata, Queen and Mother of the Church, I renew my consecration to you this day and for always, so that you may use me for the coming of the Kingdom of Jesus in the whole world. To this end, I offer you all my prayers, actions, and sacrifices of this day. Amen.

+ St. Maximilian Kolbe

Gate of Heaven, Morning Star: Pray for us!

Who is she that comes forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array? (Songs 6:10)

O Virgin fair as the moon, the delight of heaven, on whose countenance the blessed gaze and the Angels see themselves reflected, make us, your children, like you, and let our souls receive a ray of your beauty, which does not fade with the years but shines forth to eternity.     Ven. Pius XII, pope
