All graces given by God pass through the Blessed Mother" --St. Padre Pio -- I didn't know that...it makes sense though, because She gave us Jesus.Early in his priesthood, Fr. Maximilian surrendered himself "as a tool in the hands of Mary as she labors to bring all souls to Christ." He and six friends founded the Militia of the Immaculata (Crusade of Mary Immaculate). They were devoted to the conversion of sinners, opposition to freemasonry ... and spread the wearing of the Miraculous Medal (which they chose to wear as their habit). They were devoted to Our Lady and the path to Christ. --Link.
“Mary is the fruitful Virgin, and in all the souls in which she comes to dwell she causes to flourish purity of heart and body, rightness of intention and abundance of good works. Do not imagine that Mary, the most fruitful of creatures who gave birth to a God, remains barren in a faithful soul. It will be she who makes the soul live incessantly for Jesus Christ, and will make Jesus live in the soul” --St. Louis De Montfort,
