What is a Marian Consecration for Families?
A Marian Consecration for Families with Young Children is just what it sounds like, a family consecration to our Lady, born out of love of her and a deep desire to share that love with my daughter.
As a former Montessori teacher I believe that even the very youngest members of our families are capable of deep faith and deep contemplation. This book is an interactive experience, designed to provide a place for you to share your faith with your child at their level, to introduce them to Mary, and to give parents the opportunities to witness to what God has done in their lives.
What If I'm Not Sure How to Complete a 33 Day Consecration with my Kids?
That's okay! Marian Consecration for Families with Young Children contains a special section for Parents with supplementary materials designed to make these 33 days easy and fruitful for your family. The parents section contains hints, tips, and suggestions, along with Bible references and other resources to help you guide your child and introduce them to Mary.
What Others Say
"
I am so grateful for this beautiful book. It is obviously created from prayer and a desire for children to draw close to Our Lord's heart. My daughters gathered around me as I read aloud the day's simple yet profound reflection, and they immediately were drawn into the writing and invitation to contemplate their own lives and circumstances. The Conversation Starters were natural and incited deep discussion that I hadn't previously had with them about Mary, Jesus, and the Lord's desire for their holiness. I can't wait to continue these conversations with them using Marian Consecration for Families with Young Children and watch them walk with Our Lady towards her Divine Son.

While many consecration plans for families are available, none specifically addresses very young children so beautifully or intentionally as Colleen's new Marian Consecration for Families with Young Children. Through simple stories, inviting questions, and stunning artwork, the work will not only draw your young child into a deep relationship with Our Lady, but also refresh and renew your own faith and hope."

St. Therese said of Mary, “It is true that Our Lady is Queen of Heaven and earth, but at the same time she is more Mother than Queen.” This consecration book embodies this quote.
The prayers and the discussion questions are simple yet rich with meaning. It portrays Mary as a mother who is approachable and tender. Yet it shows the majestic wonder of Mary in the varied expressions of beautiful art throughout the book. It is a prayer book that will be a spiritual treasure for both you and your children.
