Easter Weekday

Easter celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus and the new life He gives His Church. Rejoice with His Mother in the victory of her Son. Ask her to deepen your hope and help you live as one redeemed: faithful to prayer, quick to forgive, and ready to bear witness to Christ.

Renew the same consecration

Fidelity · Read with the saints

Every year at least, on the same day, they shall renew the same consecration, observing the same practices for three weeks. They may even, every month and every day, renew all that they have done, in these few words: Tuus totus ego sum, et omnia mea tua sunt: I am all yours, and all that I have belongs to you, O my lovable Jesus, through Mary, your holy Mother.

St. Louis de Montfort · True Devotion §233 · excerpt

Make this prayer your own

I am all yours, and all that I have belongs to you, O my lovable Jesus, through Mary, your holy Mother.

St. Louis de Montfort · True Devotion to Mary §233

One faithful act

If you have made Montfort’s consecration, renew it with the words he gives.
