First Saturday & Consecration in Miami- September 5, 2026

On Saturday, September 5, the Heralds of the Gospel organized the First Saturday Devotion alongside with the Consecration to Mary, according to St. Louis de Montfort. The Parish of Good Shepherd filled up with all the faithful that came to participate and make reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

First Saturday Devotion

The First Saturday Devotion started with confessions at 9:00 a.m., with nine priests available throughout the unfolding of the devotion. Next, at 10:00 a.m., the Pilgrim Statue of Our Lady of Fatima processed in the Church so to proceed with the recitation of the Holy Rosary as well as the 15 minute meditation. Then, so to fulfill all four requisites that Our Lady asked for in Fatima, the Holy Mass began at 11:00 a.m.

Consecration to Mary

Alongside with the abovementioned devotion, the faithful were invited to make their consecration to Mary. It coincided since the month’s preparation of the online consecration course imparted by the Heralds came to end around this day. This fitted perfectly for the spirit of both devotions is based on a filial desire to unite oneself with the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Thus, all those who had fulfilled the course prayed in unison the Consecration before the Pilgrim Statue of Our Lady of Fatima.

Crowning and Grandeur

Towards the end of the devotion, the Pilgrim Statue of Our Lady of Fatima was crowned in a solemn ceremony. A triumphant procession with the Statue followed this pious Marian act. And to embellish even more the ceremony as well as the whole devotion of the First Saturday and consecration, grand standards of the Heralds were used and incense in the Holy Mass.
