Mary Help of Christians, also known as Mary “Help of Christians”, is an ancient Marian devotion from the early centuries, which, however, had its greatest expansion in the 19th and 20th centuries thanks to Saint John Bosco and the Salesians. But its origin and importance is much earlier, it was already known by the Christian communities of the first centuries, as well as by the Fathers of the Church, some of whom spoke precisely of her.
