To continue our Marian consecration series, we now discuss a method which I personally practice. I am very pleased to have once again Br. Oliver Abasolo SMM from the Company of Mary, more commonly known as the Montfort Missionaries. He went through the life of St. Louis de Montfort and his method of Marian consecration. And what's more, this episode was recorded with the relic of St. Louis de Montfort. He was physically present!
