Total Consecration to JesusThrough Mary February 2009
I am the Immaculate Conception. Thus did Mary address herself to SaintBernadette at Lourdes. Before that Saint Louis de Montfort gave as one of the devotionspleasing to the Blessed Virgin Mary the total consecration of our life to Jesus throughMary. To do this he recommends that we select a Feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary, thenmake a rather long preparation divided into four part. To this end We plan on renewingOur consecration to Mary prior to the Feast of the Annunciation, March 25, 2009. BelowWe have reproduced Saint Louis de Montfort’s instructions. We will summarize here:Friday February 20 to Tuesday March 3: Those who wish to enter into thisparticular devotion, ..., after having, as in the first part of this preparation for the reignof Jesus Christ, employed twelve days at least in emptying themselves of the spirit of theworld, which is contrary to the spirit of Jesus Christ-should employ three weeks in fillingthemselves with Jesus Christ by the holy Virgin.
 
2Ember Wednesday March 4 to 10: During the first week they should employ alltheir prayers and pious actions in asking for a knowledge of themselves, and forcontrition for their sins; and they should do this in a spirit of humility.Wednesday March 11 to 17: During the second week, they should applythemselves, during all their prayers and works each day, to know the Blessed Virgin.Wednesday March 18 to 24: They should apply themselves in the third week toknow Jesus Christ.Wednesday Renewal of Consecration on the Annunciation, March 25th
A Necessary Component
In order to gain any indulgence and indeed to save our souls, we must be invisible union with the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Roman Church founded by JesusChrist. In order to be in this visible union we must be in obedience to the pastorsappointed by Almighty God through His holy Church, especially the Pope. As Successorof Saint Peter on June 28, 1992, We issued an order for all Catholics to make theProfession of Faith on or before August 22, 1992. The text of this decree is reproducedbelow.We renew and modify this order now. All Catholics are obliged to make theProfession of Faith either in Our presences personally or in writing in the presence of twowitnesses and deliver this by mail to Ourself at Our current place of exile:Office of Pope MichaelBox 74Delia, KS 66418In this way you are enrolled in the Catholic Church. We ask that you also send acopy of your Baptismal Certificate, as well as a short autobiography, also known as acurriculum vitae. This should detail any other Sacraments you have received, andanything else pertinent to your relationship with the Church and your search for the trueChurch since Vatican II. This need not be long, and We will reply with any questionsWe may have. We will reply providing you with absolution from any censures you mayhave incurred as well as place you on the regular mailing list to which We will sendannouncements several times a year. One of the announcements We hope to send soon isthe Restoration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.For those who have attempted to enter the clerical state through the reception of tonsure and Holy Orders, you may reconcile and return to the lay state through themethod described here. If you wish to have the suspension of Canon 2372 removed,which forbids the exercise of Holy Orders received outside of the Catholic Church, werequire that you present yourself in person at Our place of exile. You can makearrangements for this, when sending the Profession of Faith in. We recommend you sendall pertinent documentation in regard to the Orders you have received, so theinvestigation of their validity can be commenced.Given this 13th day of February, 2009

From Saint Louis de Montfort
Those who wish to enter into this particular devotion, ..., after having, as in thefirst part of this preparation for the reign of Jesus Christ, employed twelve days at leastin emptying themselves of the spirit of the world, which is contrary to the spirit of JesusChrist-should employ three weeks in filling themselves with Jesus Christ by the holyVirgin.They should pursue the followingDuring the first week they should employ all their prayers and pious actions inasking for a knowledge of themselves, and for contrition for their sins; and they shoulddo this in a spirit of humility. For that end they can, if they chose, meditate on what Ihave said before of this week as snails, crawling things, toads, swine, serpents, andunclean animals; or they can reflect on these three considerations of Saint Bernard: thevileness of our origin, the dishonours of our present state, and our ending as food forworms. They should pray our Lord and the Holy Ghost to enlighten them; and for thatend they might use the ejaculations, Domine ut videam (Lord that I might see.), orNoverim me (Lord that I might know myself.), or Veni Sancte Spiritus; and they may saydaily the Ave Maris Stella, and the Litany of the Holy Ghost.During the second week, they should apply themselves, during all their prayersand works each day, to know the Blessed Virgin. They should ask this knowledge of theHoly Ghost; they should read and meditate what we have said about it. They should ask this knowledge of the Holy Ghost; they should read and meditate what we have saidabout it. They should recite, as in the first week, the Litany of the Holy Ghost and theAve Maris Stella, and in addition a Rosary daily, or, if not a whole Rosary, at least achaplet, for the intention of impetrating more knowledge of Mary.They should apply themselves in the third week to know Jesus Christ. They canmeditate upon what we have said about Him, and say the prayer of Saint Augustine whichthey will find in the first part of this treatise. They can, with the same Saint, repeat ahundred times a day, Noverim te- "Lord, that I might know Thee! or Domine, ut videam-"Lord, that I might see Who Thou art!" They shall recite, as in the preceding weeks, thelitany of the Holy Ghost and the Ave Maris Stella, and they shall add daily the Litany of the Holy Name of Jesus.They should apply themselves in the third week to know Jesus Christ. They canmeditate upon what we have said about Him, and say the prayer of Saint Augustine whichthey will find in the first part of this treatise. They can, with the same Saint, repeat ahundred times a day, Noverim te- "Lord, that I might know Thee! or Domine, ut videam-"Lord, that I might see Who Thou art!" They shall recite, as in the preceding weeks, thelitany of the Holy Ghost and the Ave Maris Stella, and they shall add daily the Litany of the Holy Name of Jesus.At the end of the three weeks they shall confess and communicate (spiritually,since we cannot do this actually) with the intention of giving themselves to Jesus Christ,in the quality of slaves of love, by the hands of Mary. After communion, which theyshould try to make according to the method given farther on, they should recite theformula of their consecration, which they will find afterwards. They ought to write it, orhave it written, unless it is printed; and they should sign it the same day they have made
