Preborn Jesus Ministry First Quarter Report, 2021

Preborn Jesus Ministry First Quarter Report, 2021

The First quarter of 2021 began with the re-consecration of Preborn Jesus Ministry to St. Joseph.  The re-consecration's start date was  Jan. 1, The Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, and it was completed on Feb. 2, the Presentation of Our Lord in the Temple. This, then led into discernment of what God was unfolding for the March 25th re-consecration of this apostolate to Jesus Through Mary.

This re-consecration would be quite instrumental in taking us into the womb of Mary, through Fr. Boniface Hicks, OSB, 33 Day Marian Consecration. We extended the invitation to others to join us on this journey, by posting daily on Social Media platforms.

The Series was entitled, Jesus's Window, and in humility, I explain the inspiration in this way-

Jesus's Window is   open and the Holy Spirit's breath is blowing through this window as we enter into the womb with Preborn Jesus to learn the greatest of mysteries.

From Fr. Boniface's website,

"Even more helpless than an infant, we are invited to be held in the most perfect embrace of the most loving mother as a child in the womb. This is the radical quality of our trust, our abandonment to the one who always perfectly lives in accord with the will of God. She is the perfect mother who will only nourish the child in her womb with the best of foods and who turns every squirming movement of that tiny child into a beautiful expression of love for God.

In this way we have reframed (St. Louis de Montfort's)Total Consecration to Mary, without losing anything, no longer as a scary slavery, but now as the perfect embrace and safe protection provided by a mother for an infant in her womb."

We journeyed daily, with Fr. Boniface's profound teachings on being formed within the womb of Mary. We reached our March 25, re-consecration date with a greater understanding of St. Augustine's quote,

"All the predestinate, in order to be conformed to the image of the Son of God, are in this world hidden in the womb of the most holy Virgin; where they are guarded, nourished, brought up, and made to grow by that good Mother until she has brought them forth to glory after death, which is properly the day of their birth, as the Church calls the death of the just. O mystery of grace, unknown to the reprobate, and but little known even to the predestinate!"

We hope, in the near future, to post a link to Fr. Boniface's meditations for his 33 Day Marian Consecration and accompany those daily readings with our graphics for that particular day, with a quote by Fr. Boniface about being formed in the Womb of Mary.

Let us end with Fr. Boniface's beautiful prayer.

 

Prayer of Entrustment to the Womb of Mary

Almighty God, Heavenly Father,

who have placed me, by Baptism, in the womb of the Virgin Mary

beneath her Immaculate Heart

to be together with your Son

and ever more conformed to Him by the power of the Holy Spirit,

grant that I may whole-heartedly embrace my dependence on you

as I place all my trust in my Mother Mary.

May I never scorn my weakness which your Son chose to share with me,

but may I always be grateful to be little and helpless,

knowing that without you I can do nothing.

Veiled with her beneath the protective care of Saint Joseph her spouse,

may I find in her a refuge against every danger

and in her womb a hiding place invisible to the ancient foe.

May I know that I am loved perfectly like Jesus by Joseph and Mary,

those parents, who, receiving everything from You,

will always provide for all of my needs.

Through the same Christ our Lord.

Amen.
