Want To Grow In Holiness, But Too Busy?
Want to transform your work, your marriage, your family, and your life, but don’t have time? Looking for the quickest, surest, and easiest way to holiness, but don’t know where to begin? In our hectic day and time, St. John Paul II and St. Teresa of Calcutta knew that the quickest way to be transformed into a saint is through a relationship with Our Blessed Mother, Mary.
 
Join us in September, as we being a 33-day preparation for Marian Consecration. For six weeks, we’ll individually read about and reflect on four great Marian giants: St. Louis de Montfort, St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Teresa of Calcutta, and St. John Paul II. They’ll teach us the secrets of drawing closer to the Heart of Jesus through the Heart of Mary. 
 
In our weekly meetings, we’ll share our insights within our small group and then watch a 30-minute video. The video by popular author and speaker, Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, brings our individual reflections and group experience into a clear and liveable focus.

These exercises contain a built-in order that can help us grow in holiness over a short time.
