That was absolutely a fantastic talk. I am now age 88 but for my years I was a member of L.oM. I was a president f0r six years an we also had a junior presidium presidium. but when we moved to a different part of country no legion only once did I ask the priest about it, his words (I don't like it) ⁰
very impressed with Fr Gillispie explanation on the step by step of Legion of Mary's Prasedium meeting. i am particularly impressed that he teaches on how to pray the rosary in unison, to unite as one in prayer to our Lady. i have been waiting for someone to explain how a group should pray, no one should go fast but be heard as one voice and we pray imagining Our Lady is in person in front of us. thank you Fr. Gillispie, i am now a better Legion of Mary member because of your simple but very effective explanation.
I am a past officer in the Legion of Mary at curia level & Senatus level.. I live in Ohio but no Legion . I have not checked with diocese because am not able to be active. But would like to be auxiliary. I'm disappointed.
Thank you so much Fr Hugh. This is an answer to prayers for sure. was talking to a friend who I discovered was experiencing such suffering & told her that her suffering was important & precious & a cross but without being able to back it up or articulate it better & without real knowledge myself. After talking we went into church & prayed together. Here has come a concrete answer. 2 days later. To be taught about the GRACE & GOODNESS in the Cross, & through such holy men & to have prayers especially to Our Blessed Mother asking for graces. Well, it's wonderful. I will not forget what you said about the 2nd station of the Cross, & Jesus looking up to Heaven ! Yes, he is receiving the Cross from His Father & Our Father. This has changed how I will view the Way of the Cross & how therefore I will walk it. Also how there are wayS. This is very helpful & has opened something up within me. A sincere 'thank you'. Book ordered & shared link of this talk with my friend. Pray for us St Louis de Montfort. Pray for us Fr Boudon. Our Lady, Full of Grace, pray for us.
The most important quality of God is His Faithfulness!! Wow!! I never considered that! Thank you Fr Hugh!! You are such a blessing for so many of us! Thank you!
When I made my Consecration last year I did not use this devotion. But, I’m renewing mine and my wife is making her Consecration this year. We have started this devotion a week ago and it is wonderful!
I really needed this Father! You explain this so well. I just ordered this book on Amazon and looking forward to studying it! God bless you!! I am very grateful! 📿
Just entered into LOM and i gotta say i enjoyed it :). But because of my other commitments, i cant be an active member but instead becoming auxi member.
Google the Pagan goddess “Semiramis with child” ( Nimrod). Notice the similarities to your graven Images of Mary and Child. She was called “The Queen of Heaven “. You have been deceived.
Thank you Fr for the beautiful teaching about Legion of Mary. It's my first time to understand the works of Legion of Mary. I appreciate and love all I have learnt today. May God richly bless you in his vineyard.
GOOD day to all. Why is it that in our praesidia meeting, in praying the Rosary, why is it that the apostles creed and the decade prayer requested by mama Mary at Fatima, are not included in the prayers? ... Thanks in advance
I am watching these talks in the summer of 2023 as part of the Total Consecration to Jesus Through Mary program of the Oakland Diocese in California.. I had never heard of Fr Gillespie before, but what an incredible blessing his talks have been for me! The way he unpacks Through Mary, With Mary, In Mary and for Mary--well, the word "treasure' may just be an understatement! I pray for blessings for Fr Hugh and that much fruit may be born in the lives of all blessed enough to encounter these talks!
This s a beautiful and most insightful message of the Legion of Mary works as we visit the Sick in Hospital and as we do our Home to Home visits. Thank you Fr Hugh.
Thanks so much for these videos. They give life and color to this wonderful book and help us to actually experience the message, rather than simply read the message.
i don't understand the use of the word 'slavery' as applied to marian consecration. i thought we were adopted sons and daughters of God. a son isn't a slave. didn't he create us to be free? someone who is free is not a slave. slaves get beaten and mistreated, so why should we use the word slave like this?
