About this sermon
👉🏻 Sign up here: https://mailchi.mp/ewtn/vatican Join us on a journey to the hidden village of Venere in Abruzzo, Italy, where we explore the history and significance of the Madonna del Buon Consiglio Church. This small shrine, dating back to the Middle Ages, is the destination of many pilgrimages and is said to hold the same name as the iconic image in Genazzano. We learn about the connection between the two sanctuaries, the significance of the unique title “Our Lady of Good Counsel,” and the story of how the church survived a devastating earthquake. Unfortunately, since its renovation in the 1990s, it has become a victim to acts of vandalism, sacrilege, and desecration. We speak to Father Tonino Spanalatte, the Rector of the Sanctuary, who shares with us the symbolism of the iconography of Our Lady and the role of Mary in leading us to Jesus. We also hear from a local parishioner about the challenges faced by the community due to recent acts of vandalism. Join us on this journey of discovery and appreciation of the rich history and significance of this hidden gem in Venere, Italy. 👥 Follow us on our social networks: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/EWTNVatican/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/EWTNVatican Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EWTNVatican
