My Child, Give Me Thy Heart: A Traditional Catholic Method of Consecrating Oneself to Jesus through Mary Unalterably Faithful to St. Louis de Montfort's Instructions

St. Louis de Montfort, in True Devotion to Mary, has left us an infinitely valuable treatise on how to be perfectly one with Jesus through Mary. In addition, he teaches us how to properly consecrate oneself to Jesus through Mary.
