Experience an extraordinary journey to Marian consecration through 33 Days to Morning Glory by best-selling author Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC. Father Michael masterfully summarizes the teachings of four giants of Marian spirituality: St. Louis de Montfort, St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Teresa of Calcutta, and St. John Paul II, making them easy to grasp and simple enough to put into practice. More specifically, he weaves their thoughts into a user-friendly, do-it-yourself retreat that will bless even the busiest of people. So if you've been thinking about entrusting yourself to Mary for the first time, or if you're simply looking to deepen and renew your devotion to her, 33 Days to Morning Glory is the right book to read and the perfect retreat to make.

The final instalment in the trilogy. In this third instalment of his 33-day consecration series, Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, has saved the best for last! 33 Days to Greater Glory stands as the culmination of a trilogy of consecrations that begins with the massively popular manual of Marian entrustment, 33 Days to Morning Glory. Second in the series is 33 Days to Merciful Love, because Mary always leads us to Jesus, the Divine Mercy. Finally, because Jesus wants to bring us home to the Father, we arrive at 33 Days to Greater Glory. And this really is a case of saving the best for last, because a consecration to our Heavenly Father truly is the greater consecration, the one in which all others find their origin and end. Finally, as a bonus, Fr. Gaitley has also included his popular and easy-to-use novena of consecration to St. Joseph, Nine Days to Joseph, which helps us enter more fully into the Fatherhood of God.

There's no substitute for making Fr. Michael's do-it-yourself retreat, but this portable prayer companion is the next best thing! Three simple parts summarize the whole retreat and teach a spirituality that even the busiest of people can follow. Even if you've never heard of Consoling the Heart of Jesus, this guide to the best-selling book will explain to you in a clear, step-by-step way what it is all about. You'll find all the main ideas, prayers, and meditations included in the retreat compiled for easy reference.

If you loved Fr. Michael's Consoling the Heart of Jesus retreat, now you can always have with you everything you need to live consoling spirituality. Take it with you wherever you go!

With humor and ease, Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, deftly unlocks the 'one thing,' the key to the Church's wisdom, and the greatest mystery of the Catholic faith: the Most Holy Trinity. Far from being an academic read, The 'One Thing' Is Three makes deep theology accessible to everyday Catholics. What's more, it makes even what's familiar or forgotten new, exciting, and relevant. An ideal resource for the Year of Faith.

"This is the best example I have ever seen of "the new evangelization" in the form of a book for contemporary Catholics. It covers just about everything, yet slowly and clearly. If you wonder what God is doing in the Church today to convert and convince the modern world, read this book." — Peter Kreeft, Ph.D. Author, Catholic Christianity and Professor of Philosophy, Boston College

In You Did It to Me, Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, has a genius for bringing together the spiritual and corporal works of mercy under the umbrella of 'The Five Scriptural Works of Mercy' that Jesus will use to judge us at the end of the world, Matthew 25:31-46. He then enriches these scriptural texts on mercy with the practical insights of St. Pope John Paul II, St. Faustina, and Pope Francis. He also has a very fertile imagination in bringing to life practical ways of implementing these works of mercy, together with a plan of action for making them concrete and livable.

"I could not recommend this book more highly." — Bishop Robert J. Hermann, Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus of St. Louis
