Today, my non-Catholic neighbor asked me if I knew if the month for Marian devotion was in Novemeber in the southern hemisphere instead of May bc their seasons are reversed. They will be in winter while we are experiencing summer.
I said I would ask and get back to him.
Incidentally, I have been praying for help from the BVM and wearing the Miraculous Medal (until the chain broke a couple days ago). I was praying for an opening so I could talk with them about setting the record straight on proper devotion to Mary. I am pretty good friends with them, but the lady once told me, “She’s (Mary, that is) not the Mother of God!” Well, this may be a way I can witness to/through the husband. He is from S Amer., and his mother (whom I also know, and who lives nearby) was raised Catholic, but has fallen away. I am praying for her re-conversion also.
It’s possible they have been praying for a way to tell me how bad it is to “worship” Mary! But I’ve been studying apologetics and am prepared how to answer.
Thanks in advance for answers or referrals to sources!
