We the Society of Montfort Missionaries in India (Montfort Fathers), through our SMM India Blog, make an effort to follow the mission of the Company of Mary through our sharing of articles, reflections and celebrations. “Our Mission in the Church consists in revealing the mystery of salvation to those who do not yet know it, and in helping those who have already heard the Good News to rediscover and deepen this mystery by a renewed consciousness the meaning of their baptismal Commitment. The Marian character of the Company is an essential possession of our congregation. Mary is not present in the life of the missionaries in some accidental fashion: devotion toward her is an integral part of their spiritual life and apostolate. The ‘total consecration’ to Jesus through Mary is the most outstanding mark of the Marian character of our inspiration.”
“We never give more honor to Jesus than when we honor His Mother,
and we honor her simply and solely to honor Him all the more perfectly.
We go to her only as a way leading to the goal we seek—Jesus, her Son.”
We go to her only as a way leading to the goal we seek—Jesus, her Son.”

“If, then, we establish solid devotion to our Blessed Lady, it is only to establish more perfectly devotion to Jesus Christ, and to provide an easy and secure means for finding Jesus Christ. If devotion to Our Lady removed us from Jesus Christ, we should have to reject it as an illusion of the devil; but so far from this being the case, devotion to Our Lady is, on the contrary, necessary for us—as I have already shown, and will show still further hereafter—as a means of finding Jesus Christ perfectly, of loving Him tenderly, of serving Him faithfully.”
~ St. Louis de Montfort
“The rosary is the most powerful weapon to touch the Heart of Jesus, Our Redeemer, who loves His Mother.”
