“Consecration to St. Joseph emulates the tried-and-true preparation method employed by St. Louis de Montfort in his Marian consecration, highlighting many of St. Joseph’s titles, privileges, and heroic virtues. The program of preparation and consecration from the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception of the B.V.M. takes 33 days. It can be undertaken on your own or in a group.”
