I’m looking to pick a dedication. However, apart from some of the more obvious ones (Our lady of Mt. Carmel, Our lady of the Miraculous Medal, ect) I’m a little bit lacking in what devotions are out there. Could someone list a few?

Also, is it worth picking a dedication that’s not to Our lady? I’ve heard from a few sources that Mary is the most powerful intercessior with the Lord and I’d like to help out any causes (Holy Souls, ect) as much as possible.

What other criteria should I consider in picking a devotion?

Sorry if this is in the wrong place, too.
 
I just joined the Confraternity of the Passionists. I had never heard of them, but after reading a book on Saint Gemma Galgani, I was inspired to learn more. After I researched all devotions they seemed right for me, although I still carry a special devotion for the Virgin Mary.
 
I understand that you can have more then one devotion, but I’d prefer to pick one.

I’ve just completed the 1st two Saturday’s of the “5 1st Saturday’s devotion” of Our Lady of Fatima. Here is a link with more information.

Just to add another note on the 1st 5 Saturday’s devotion. . . I really like the promises of the Blessed Virgin as I often worry about my own salvation and that of other souls. Here they are:

***Promises
  1. The Virgin Mary’s assistance at the hour of death with the graces necessary for salvation for those who practice the devotion.
  2. Salvation of souls and peace as a result of promoting of the Devotion to the Immaculate Heart. ***
