Tips
Churches and chapels throughout the world are dedicated to the Madonna under many different names. Sometimes the patronal feast is one of her numerous feast days in the liturgical calendar, but here in Sannicola, the Mother of God is invoked as "Our Lady of Consolation"—also known in German as "Comforter of the Afflicted." Veneration under this name perhaps particularly emphasizes the Madonna's importance in popular piety, for since the early Christian centuries, people have turned to the Mother of God with confidence and with their many sorrows.
