A part of City of the Immaculata's Amazing Saint Stories: In the 7th century a new military force unlike any the world had ever known came out of the Arabian Desert and began the most successful campaign of conquest in history. It seemed unstoppable. Now, Christian Europe lay in sights. City by city the Visigoth Empire fell to the Islamic invaders.
Then, in 722, in a small cave in the remote mountains of Northern Spain, a Christian Knight knelt and prayed to Our Lady, thus beginning the Spanish Reconquista, and the 800 year Christian struggle to regain their ancestral lands.
Join us as we discuss the little known Marian apparition, Our Lady of Covadonga!
