Preparation for Holy Communion with Mary in the Spirit of Blessed de Montfort

To the Catholic who's seeking to strengthen their devotion to Jesus in the face of temptation

If I offered to show you how to strengthen your devotion to Jesus in the face of temptation...

...more in one month than most people do in years...

...without changing your daily routine...

...using a little-known, easy, and Church-approved method...

...so you can overcome the temptations which the devil throws at you...

...would you take me up on that offer?

Here's what St. Louis-Marie de Montfort said about using the way which this book shows you how to prepare for Holy Communion with Mary and fight temptation...

"By this practice, faithfully observed, you will give Jesus more glory in a month than by any other practice, however difficult, in many years" ("True Devotion to Mary", #222).

The reason St. Louis spoke with such conviction and without the slightest hesitation is because God revealed this devotion directly to him. Here's St. Louis again...

"Predestinate soul, here is a secret the Most High has taught me, which I have not been able to find in any book, old or new. I confide it to you, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit" ("The Secret of Mary", #1).

And since he says "the essential of this devotion consists in the interior which it ought to form" (True Devotion, #119), and not in exterior practices, he also promises that you can strengthen your devotion to Jesus...

"...without scarcely doing anything by what we are obliged to do by our state of life" (True Devotion, #171).

In other words, without changing your daily routine.

So you can see why Pope St. John Paul II told the Montfort Fathers this devotion "was a decisive turning-point in my life."

Montfort Father Jean-Marie Texier was such an expert at spelling out how to use this devotion to prepare for Holy Communion with Mary that, in the history of their religious order, the Montfort Fathers called him "a remarkable spiritual writer".

St. Louis promises you...

"The third good which Our Lady does to her servants is that she conducts and directs them according to the will of her Son. She shows them the paths of eternal life. There where the guidance of Mary is, neither the evil spirit with his illusions, nor the heretics with their subtleties, can ever come" (True Devotion, #209).

And so, at the same time that she's leading you according to her Son's will, Mary's also strengthening you against all the temptations of the devil.

St. Louis echoed what he said elsewhere...

"For where Mary is the devil has never had and never will have access" (Secret, #17).

And that's why Mary's enemy, the devil, doesn't want you to know anything of what you've read here today.

Here's another way St. Louis described this devotion...

It is a short road, which leads us to Jesus in a little time" (True Devotion, #168).

Mary teaches us not to look backward once the road is decided upon.

She does not beat around the bush. She does not take winding detours. She follows a straight line to the objective: union with her Son.

That's why St. Louis emphasized...

"She unites them to Him with a most intimate union, and she keeps them unshaken in that union" (True Devotion, #211).

And so, the way of preparing for Holy Communion with Mary which this book spells out is not for tire-kickers or the non-committal.

It's for those who're ready to let Mary unite them to her Son. It's for Catholics who're ready to welcome Mary's help in the same way that she quickly responded to St. Gabriel...

"Behold the handmaid of the Lord; let it be done to me according to thy word" (Lk. 1:38).

Mary knows there's nothing that will ever satisfy you like a life lived in union with her Son.

So don't delay and miss out, because Mary's waiting to give you a new and better chapter in life.
