Militia Immaculata Prayer of Marian Consecration<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/font>(Composed by St.
\nMaximilian Kolbe)<\/font><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
O Immaculata, Queen of Heaven and earth, refuge of sinners
\nand our most loving Mother, God has willed to entrust the entire order of mercy
\nto you. I, (name), a repentant sinner, cast myself at your feet, humbly
\nimploring you to take me with all that I am and have, wholly to yourself as
\nyour possession and property. Please make of me, of all my powers of soul and
\nbody, of my whole life, death and eternity, whatever most pleases you. If it
\npleases you, use all that I am and have without reserve, wholly to accomplish
\nwhat was said of you: “She will crush your head,” and “You alone
\nhave destroyed all heresies in the whole world.”<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
Let me be a fit
\ninstrument in your immaculate and merciful hands for introducing and increasing
\nyour glory to the maximum in all the many strayed and indifferent souls, and
\nthus help extend as far as possible the blessed kingdom of the most Sacred
\nHeart of Jesus. For wherever you enter you obtain the grace of conversion and
\ngrowth in holiness, since it is through your hands that all graces come to us
\nfrom the most Sacred Heart of Jesus. <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/font><\/div>\n
V. Allow me to praise you, O sacred
\nVirgin <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span>R. Give me strength against
\nyour enemies.<\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
