From another vantage point, Michael P. delos Reyes’ “The Jesuits and Filipino Marian Devotions” explores yet another way the missionaries propagated the Faith in the Philippines, this time by promoting devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Indeed, as a testament to the success of this aspect of evangelization, the whole country is dotted with Marian shrines as centers of popular piety and our people have even earned the sobriquet, Pueblo Amante de Maria, a people in love with Mary. While the missionaries who belonged to different religious Orders brought their own Marian appelations to their respective mission areas around the country, this article focuses in particular on the history of nine Marian titles whose cult was introduced by the Jesuits. As the author keenly observes, many of these devotions have continued to take root and blossom in the hearts of our people and the communities that they belong to, with seven out of the nine Marian images having been honored with a pontifical or episcopal coronation. – from the Associate Editor’s Preface
