Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

It is the feast of Penecost here in Australia and I have come home from Mass. After Sunday Mass in our parish we have exposition of the Blessed Sacrament straight after Mass until the next Mass begins.

So I was able to renew my consecration in front of Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament as the blessed in Heaven are never so close to us than in the Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, so I could not be any closer to my Blessed Mother.

I want to particularly thank all you dear ladies. All throughout the reading of the True Devotion prayers were promised and offered for me during this whole special time and I know it has made an incredible difference.

The re-learning of the True Devotion was incredibly important, I know. And my devotion was greatly deepened because of all the new revelations we talked about over the months, but this feeling inside of me is different it is not due to knowledge but grace - I believe it to be the grace given to me by the prayers offered and I cannot thank you enough for that precious gift!

(my happy tears because I'm crying)

I am going to pray for all you dear women everyday, in thanksgiving for this grace. I will add "The True Devotion friends" to my new 'Miraculous Medal Prayer Mobile' and will say often throughout the day for the continuing 30 days, "Oh Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee."

Happy Feast Day, blessed be your consecration day!

Thank-you for sharing in my joy Alice, I forgot to add that I have the distinct advantage of being 15 hours ahead of you all, to be able to pray for you all tomorrow during your consecrations - and I will be!

Dear Anne,
Thank YOU for all you've done! You've been such an inspiration and light here.

I was thinking of all of you at Mass today and I was very happy to be sharing this day with you all. I think there is a lot of symbolism in renewing/making our consecrations to Our Lady today.

The Holy Spirit is the giver of Life, He is �spiritual Unction� breathing life into our Faith, and He is the Invisible Guest. You are my friends that I do not see, the friends with whom I share the fullness of Faith, and the friends who are open to the Giver of Life�
and now we will also share the Spouse of the Holy Spirit!
