Consecration to Jesus Through Mary

Tuesdays, April 30 - June 6,
10:00 - 11:30 AM in the Parish Library

Join us for this exciting 6-week preparation for Consecration. The act of consecrating oneself "to Jesus through Mary" is a new beginning in one's spiritual journey, a fresh start that can change everything, a new way of life in Christ. We prepare ourselves as we read, ponder and discuss Fr. Michael Gaitley's book 33 Days to Morning Glory. Contact Maureen Wong at 952-927-0089 or maureenw0089@gmail.com for more information or to register.

About the Book:

From Fr. Michael E. Gaitley, MIC, author of the bestselling book Consoling the Heart of Jesus, comes an extraordinary 33-day journey to Marian consecration with four giants of Marian spirituality: St. Louis de Montfort, St. Maximilian Kolbe, Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, and Blessed John Paul II.

Fr. Michael masterfully summarizes their teaching, making it easy to grasp and simple enough to put into practice. More specifically, he weaves their thought into a user-friendly, do-it-yourself retreat that will bless even the busiest of people.

So, if you've been thinking about entrusting yourself to Mary for the first time or if you're simply looking to deepen and renew your devotion to her, 33 Days to Morning Glory is the perfect retreat to make.

Join a Small Group

OLG Small Groups Living Faith and Life Together

Small Groups draw adults into transformative friendship with Jesus and with one another.

A small group consists of 6-12 people gathered around the Word of God for friendship, spiritual growth, and prayer.

There are a variety of groups meeting different days and time.  Find one that works for you!

If you don’t find one that fits please contact Jessica Balzarini or click here for details on Small Groups at OLG.

During the Lenten season we had over 250 parishioners and friends are participate in the small groups. Our Parish offers a heartfelt thank you to the small group leaders.  These dedicated leaders have been committed to our Archdiocesan movement of evangelization this Lent. Our hope is that this is the first spark at OLG that desires to build a culture of small groups growing in faith together.
