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.

On October 13 Pope Francsis will consecrate the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary!

Read More Here: Pope Francis To Consecrate The World to Mary's Immaculate Heart

TODAY, OCT 4th, is the start of the Novena for the Immaculate Heart of Mary by the wonderful people at Pray More Novenas to help all prepare for this great day.

I wanted to share with you all and ask to join in! (sorry for the late notice, that is the way I roll lately )

Sorry for the serial post....

But I wanted to add, that my kids who don't naturally gravitate towards praying on their own, LOVE doing novenas as a family.

I don't know if it's the structure or the kind of game to remember to pray it for 9 days, but it' works for us!

So, if you haven't ever done a novena with your kids I would like to encourage you to join in for this one.

I'm glad you posted this, Betsy!

I was trying to think of little ways (and easy to do) that I could make this tangible for my boys. Any ideas?

I'm thinking reading Fatima stories, for one. I've got a few I can pull off the shelf.

For food I am stealing re-using an idea from one of Alice Gunthers teas for The Fest of the Presentation.

You could serve Strawberries with Sword Toothpicks. This has been a big hit in the past for my family.

P.S. I have had luck finding the toothpicks at a Party Store and Walmart (but only once--or I wan't looking in the right spot)
