Happy feast of Saint Louis de Montfort! His book, True Devotion to Mary, is beautiful and has inspired many of saints (including Saint John Paul!). He wrote in True Devotion, “Mary has produced, together with the Holy Ghost, the greatest thing which has been or ever will be—a God-Man; and she will consequently produce the greatest saints that there will be in the end of time.”
To inspire your Marian devotion, I’ve included a photo and some *authentic* video clips below. They have a realistic view of what the family rosary looks like in our house. Clearly, we don’t accomplish human perfection BUT our Lady, the Mediatrix, takes what we give and makes it wraps it in a bow, making it presentable to her Son.
Surely, the rosary is a spiritual weapon and while we can and will testify to this truth, we are praying for the time when our toddler, John Paul, understands *what* spiritual weapon means. Until then, ora pro nobis!

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
