How magnificent! The portrayal of Our Lady's humility and holiness melts the heart. I adore this conjoined image of Assumption and Coronation. Thank you for posting it.

Thanks for the ping. My computer is on its way out but the icons I was able to see are beautiful.
I would ping my list but most of them are banned :-/ I think you already pinged the ones who are not.

I've noticed that the novena (if it is done on the nine days before the feast day, not including the feast day itself), starts on the Feast of the Transfiguration, which is also First Saturday this year.

The Syriac style depiction of the Seraphim at the top right and left is especially wonderful.

Thanks for the glorious images and the wonderful information!
I know that some on this board are members of the Militia of the Immaculata. The link above details the who, what, when, where and why. It is an organization of spiritual warriors begun by St. Maximilian Kolbe and some other seminarians in Rome at a time of great conflict before the First Great War. He and the other seminarians modeled the consecration after that of St. Louis de Montfort which is probably known to all. This was the consecration taken by our dearly departed and Great Holy Father, John Paul II--"Totus Tuus!"
St. Max, a Franciscan, at one point had literally hundreds of thousands of pamplets being printed during the time of the Nazi rise in Germany. These brave souls kept the underground Church alive and masterminded techniques to spread the Gospel message using the latest in technological techniques (which makes the internet link to his apostolate so appropriate). I took this consecration on the Feast of the Assumption (Dormition) years ago. It is not a single time thing. It is renewed daily in a prayer as short as one Hail Mary. If one investigates, you will find it is an entrustment to the Mother of God, the Immaculata, to perfect all our daily actions and thoughts and to work for the Kingdom of her Son.
I invite all to consider this as an option during this time of great strife, of war and during the incredible killing of so many harmless babes in the womb. The details are found on the website. Freepmail for further info.

Militia Immaculatae ping! Thanks Frank Sheed for mentioning the MI. I consecrated myself to the Sacred Heart of Jesus through Mary Immaculate on the Feast of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, June 27, 2003. I renew my consecration most days. I love St. Maximilian's version of the Miraculous Medal prayer (
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee, and for all who do not have recourse to thee, especially the enemies of the Church, and those who are recommended to thee.).
The last day of the novena is the feast day of St. Maximilian Kolbe.
St. Maximilian Kolbe, pray for us!
