We are naming our new Praesidium of the Legion of Mary, Queen of All Hearts because that was the immediate, positive response of everyone at the initial meeting. When we pray the Rosary, we are speaking and imploring from the heart to ask the Blessed Mother to touch our hearts with fervor for her Divine Son. Our hearts must be pure when we pray because it is then when we see God, experience His Presence in all that we are and all that we do.

God cannot become man in any body that was not free from sin. The special privilege of the Blessed Mother to be conceived without sin prepared her human heart to become the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Thus, it is our privilege, also, to surrender our searching hearts, focused on ourselves, to the grace that the Blessed virgin Mary, Mediatrix of all Graces, pours into our hearts and souls.

Our entire being yearns for the true happiness that comes from God alone. The Church enriches our lives with the sacraments and the devotions that enable us to become one with the Immaculate Heart and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. This is the way of the saints and the refuge of us sinners who have become tainted with the world, the devil, and the flesh. To combat this threefold temptation we need the power of Our Lord. He came to us at the crucial point of time in the perfect woman, therefore it is fitting that we follow our Mother to the Heart of her Divine Son.


The Church given to us by Our Lord when he was on this earth, the Body continues to be present to us particularly and decisively in the Most Blessed Eucharist. Our late Holy Father, Servant of God, Pope John Paul II the Great, introduced us to the five mysteries of light ("luminous mysteries"). That is the Light that offers us brilliant insights into the light of God. The Blessed Mother, Queen of all Hearts showers her blessings on us by:

1.) the Baptism of Our Lord
2.) the Wedding Feast at Cana
3.) the Proclamation of the Kingdom through the Forgiveness of sins
4.) the Transfiguration of Our Lord
5.) the institution of The Most Blessed Eucharist.

Follow that path with the other fifteen mysteries of the Rosary and find that it makes our hearts filled with the promises of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus:

Come to me all you who are weary and find life burdensome and I will refresh you. Learn of me for I am meek and humble or heart and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is sweet and my burden light. (St. Matthew 11:28-30)

Praised Be Jesus Christ!
Now and Forever.
