The Duty of the Apostolate

 

O Jesus, You have accepted me as a member of Your Msystical Body, grant that I may not be in it as a stranger, but that I may work for the good of all my brethren.

St Theresa of the Child Jesus said, "How happy I would be if, at the hour of my death, I could have a single soul to offer You! There would be a soul snatched from the fire of hell to bless You for all eternity"

St. Louis Grignion de Monfort tells us that true devotion to Mary is something holy. It leads a soul to avoid sin and to imitate the virtues of Mary.
St. Bridget has said that the demons are ever anxious in their pursuit of souls. However, they quickly abandon their prey at the sole name of Mary.

There was a beautiful quote by St Lawrence of Brindisi, whose feast day was yesterday, regarding trusting in our Lord. "Mary put her faith in the Angel of God - and the world was saved."
