“The Holy Spirit works on the blessed and produces in them love that is in some way infinite. The saints are in a constant state of ecstasy. That is to say they have transcended their earthly existence. ” (St. Louis de Montfort LS 511)
Fr. de Montfort preached that our vocation is to be holy. We are all called to be saints. On April 28, the anniversary of St. Louis de Montfort’s passing into glory, the Church grants from its treasury the right for all members of the Association of Mary, Queen of All Hearts to receive a plenary indulgence (assuming they perform the usual set of works). Find more about plenary indulgences for QoAH members here.
In preparation for his anniversary, QoAH has made available this spiritual media that were delivered on the 300th anniversary (April 2016). A novena was held in which nine days of conferences were given on various aspects of the life of St. Louis de Montfort. The Solemn Novena (audios) in honor of Fr. de Montfort provides the opportunity to hear nine different aspects of his life. This in turn will hopefully give those who listen to the Novena an opportunity to deepen their own understanding of the details of his life, but also to experience something of his personality and tremendous vocational energy.
The audio appears immediately below, and a pdf, with the prayers and an outline of the novena days material, appear at the bottom of this post. Please note, any of the nine audios may be selected. However, depending upon internet connections, it may take up to 30 seconds to completely load and view this page. We ask your patience while this occurs.
Lastly, please remember the plenary indulgence available to members (or their deceased loved ones) who receive communion (and perform the additional works) on April 28th.
