The quickest way to become a saint is through Mary. The saints themselves vouch for this, because the Blessed Mother’s intercession is powerful, bringing signal graces from God through her, since she is the Mediatrix of all graces.
Extraordinary saints like St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Therese of Lisieux, and many more sought Mary, the Mother of God, because they knew that holiness is a challenging journey alone, but with the Blessed Virgin Mary, it is a great adventure.
Are you ready to:
Love the Lord like His Mother Surrender yourself to God’s will Serve others with a charitable heart Accept suffering with hope and so much more
The Marian Consecration will prepare you to accept this call in your heart. If you’d like to give your “yes” to God through Mary, sign up to get all you’ll need for our NEW LENT 2026 Marian Consecration, from February 20th through March 25th, using the book “The Fruit of Her Womb” by Fr. Boniface Hicks, click below:
Total Consecration to Jesus Christ through Mary, or Marian Consecration, is a devotion in which we formally consecrate—give ourselves fully—to Christ in the same way He was given to us: through His Holy Mother Mary.
Considered the “saint-maker,” the Marian Consecration truly is the “surest, easiest, shortest, and the most perfect means to becoming a saint.” Some of the greatest saints—-including our Patroness St. Teresa of Calcutta, St. Pope John Paul II, St. Maximilian Kolbe—- said their consecration was the turning point of their lives. That’s because the consecration calls us to live in a radical way, as a total gift of self.
While the consecration is essentially a prayer, it is a big step in the spiritual life, so the preparation period consists of “two movements” done over 33 days. The goals of this dedicated time are as follows:
Since it’s a significant step in your spiritual journey, be discerning as to when to start. If now is a demanding time on your schedule, consider a later date when you can have the time and energy to focus, being attentive to the spiritual exercises.
While you can start a consecration any day of the year, it is encouraged to select from the list of Marian feast days below to follow with the Church’s liturgical calendar. This keeps with the spirit of Jesus, giving oneself over to the hands of Mother Mary, to do it on one of her feast days. This list shows the corresponding start and end dates, or “Consecration Day” for each Marian Feast Day.
For Lent 2026 participants, we will start on Friday, February 20th and end on the Feast of the Annunciation, March 25th.

Since the Blessed Mother always points to her Son, “we can experience the fullness of this same salvation which is nothing less than a total sharing, a profound participation in the life of Jesus.
“Montfort calls for a total consecration to Jesus Christ, the Eternal and Incarnate Wisdom, through the hands of Mary. This practice of Christian devotion is at the heart of the response which St. Louis Marie de Montfort recommends when we consider the love shown to mankind by God,” according to the Montfort Missionaries.
3) Invite a friend, or a few: Ask a friend, spouse, colleague, or relative to join you! We encourage you to even gather own small group to have the support of a community of believers do the consecration prayers together to make it even more fruitful by journeying together.
