Devotions to Our Mother of Perpetual Help
Welcome, and thank you for joining our weekly TV devotions in honor of Our Mother of Perpetual Help. We are so glad you are with us. Whether you are joining us from your own home or apartment, or watching today from a hospital or nursing home, please know that you are a vital part of this circle. Though physical walls may separate us, our hearts are joined today in a single spiritual community that knows no distance.
Who really cares about us? It is a question we all ask when the days feel long or when we are afraid to ask for the help we need. But when we gaze upon this most familiar picture of Our Mother of Perpetual Help, we receive a beautiful message of hope: you are not alone. This devotion is a sign that Mary sees our daily struggles. By seeking her protection, you are not just praying by yourself; you are joining a worldwide family of faith that stands together under her care.
