Opis

"Mary is that tower of David, of which the Holy Spirit speaks in the sacred Songs: 'Fortresses rise around it; there are hung a thousand shields and all the weapons of the valiant' (Ct 4:4). You are therefore the Blessed Virgin - as Saint Ignatius Martyr says - 'an impregnable shield for those who are engaged in combat'".Forty years after Christ's death, the Christian movement was cruelly persecuted by Jewish elites with many Christians being flapped, imprisoned and even killed. As an alternative to this resistance, they sent missionaries to other regions to expand the spread of the divine word. St. James the Major was tasked with preaching in Spain, a country located in Southern Europe. Before leaving, however, he made a consultation with the Virgin Mary, considered the mother of the apostles. The two were very connected because of faith and heart and could not separate without a formal farewell.
