Marian Consecration - Totus Tuus

Voorbereiding voor totale toewijding aan Jezus door Onbevlekte Moeder

The goal of consecration is "holiness": the renewal of the baptismal promise and continued search for unity with God. Consecration begins a gradual process of sanctification in which a person's focus turns away from self-love and towards God through Mary. The internal components focus on surrendering oneself as a slave to Mary and to Jesus through her, and performing all actions "with Mary, in Mary, through Mary and for Mary". The suggested exterior practices include enrollment in Marian societies, or joining Marian religious orders, making Marian privileges known and appreciated, and giving alms in honor of Mary.
