The careful study of the texts of the various authors will aid the reader to achieve the three goals of Marian formation: the integral knowledge of Marian doctrine, growth in authentic and heartfelt Marian devotion, and the development in the capacity to introduce others to Marian teaching and devotion by the way of the various communications media.
It is my hope that priests, permanent deacons, seminarians, and consecrated persons will find in this volume a treasured instrument for growth in their own spiritual life and for carrying out the mission of the new evangelization.
It is also my hope that it will become a standard textbook in seminaries, programs of diaconal formation and houses of formation of institutes of the consecrated life and societies of apostolic life. At the same time, I commend the text to all who desire to know more fully and to love more ardently the Mother of God.
Paperback edition, 796 pages
Some of the best minds in Mariology today have collaborated to produce this monumental anthology in honor of Our Lady and in complete fidelity to the Magisterium. Buy this book and make a present of it to your parish priest, the religious sister you know, the seminarian from your diocese, or the consecrated person or educated layperson at your parish. It’s a Mariological “must read,” especially for our priests and seminarians.

Mariology: A Guide for Priests, Deacons, Seminarians, and Consecrated Persons is an extraordinarily complete and rich tool for coming to a deeper knowledge of the teaching of the Church on the Blessed Virgin Mary, for growing in Marian devotion and for developing the means of communicating knowledge and love of the Mother of God to others.
—Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke
