Slavery to the Mother of God
Slavery to the Mother of God
An ancient yet unstoppable movement of Marian devotion was renewed throughout the entire world in the 19th Century after the re-discovery of St. Louis de Montfort’s True Devotion to Mary, a movement which lasted well into the 20th Century and motivated the Church to proclaim without reservation the Dogmas of our Faith concerning the Blessed Virgin.
The treasures we’ve come across, almost completely forgotten today in the Church, and even more so in the English-Speaking World: ‘Marian Slavery’ and ‘Exhortation toward Devotion to the Virgin Mother of God’, are now being published together as “Slavery to the Mother of God” – works which we hope will spark a similar renewal of that movement for the good of Souls.
The first of these, ‘Marian Slavery'(c. 1609) by Friar Juan de los Angeles is a very short but rich synthesis of the Spirituality of Consecration to Mary lived by the Franciscan Conceptionist Nuns of Alcalá, Spain.
By Fray Juán de los Ángeles & Fray Melchor de Cetina.
