The 1st Ever Devotion to Mary: Our Lady Help of Christians

The first ever Marian apparition was Our Lady of the Pillar (see previous talk), but the first ever Marian devotion was Mary, Help of Christians. If you don't understand why there is devotion to Mary, you might want to learn what the earliest Christians did regarding her! Fr. Chris Alar gives a fascinating and easy-to-follow explanation about this and why we need it today more than ever because of persecution of Christianity.
