Devotion to Mary Help of Christians

For Don Bosco, the Immaculate Virgin, Mary Help of Christians, was the ever-present Mother who helps her children daily, going to their rescue and leading them to Jesus. "Be devoted to Mary Help of Christians", he would often say, "and you will see what miracles are!"

In the Catholic tradition, the daily praying of the Rosary is not only a Marian devotion, but above all the contemplation of Jesus in the mysteries of his saving Incarnation.  And for Don Bosco, Mary is the powerful Helper who defends the Church and the Pope from every kind of danger.  

"Be devoted to Mary most holy; frequently call on her. Never was it known that anyone who trustingly had recourse to her was not promptly heard." - Don Bosco
