A deeper journey can be experienced by including Mary’s Mantle Consecration Prayer Journal
​​

​
Parishes may choose from a variety of ways to incorporate the retreat into their activities ranging anywhere from gathering weekly for the videos or include participants in the Prayers of the Faithful at the various Masses each week, through to holding a celebration on the final day which is always a Marian Feast Day.

Also available in Spanish, the Consecration book is available in Audio via Queen of Peace Media.
Hard copies of Mary's Mantle Consecration (can be ordered through your favourite book store).
If doing the retreat as a family and you'll be together each day - only 1 book is required for your family group.
Mary's Mantle Consecration Prayer Journal is a companion book to the original book, and many of us wouldn't do the retreat without it as it brings a richer experience to the retreat. Some will want 1 journal per participant.
This is a poster for children to colour in. If you would like this it is available here, however it's easier if you are in Australia postage wise, to print it out yourself (right click on the picture on our site).
