PARAÑAQUE (National Shrine of Mary Help of Christians) 14 May 2013-- It is timely that in the month of May, a Marian booklet is available as a devotional resource for devotees of Don Bosco's Madonna: Mary Help of Christians. This booklet of about 35 pages was compiled by the rector of the National Shrine, Fr. Chito Dimaranan, SDB in collaboration with other Salesians.
Various Marian prayers are found in it. Several pages also offer a Biblical and historical background of this Marian devotion, starting from the appeal of Pope Pius V during the Battle of Lepanto, then to the times of St. John Bosco and how this devotion reached the Philippines. The editor also mentions that it is emerging that she is being invoked as Mother and Protectress of families separated on account of migration and other reasons.
This booklet is now available in PDF format and could be downloaded from the English(en) version of the SDB.ORG Marian page.
It is said that we could never elaborate fully about our Blessed Mother. So, if any reader wants to add some more resources in any format (doc, mp3, ppt, pdf, etc.) on this SDB.ORG (en) Marian page, please send them to: eao.australasia@gmail.com
"Have a great devotion to Mary Help of Christians and you will see what miracles are."
