Many Catholics fled into the jungle of La Vang; while they gathered at night to pray the Rosary, they received an apparition of the Virgin with the Child Jesus, who comforted them and promised them protection.<\/p>\n<p>La Vang became the principal Marian shrine of the country. The church was destroyed and rebuilt several times, especially during the wars, but the devotion remained alive. In 1962, Saint John XXIII raised it to the rank of minor basilica, and Saint John Paul II underlined its importance when he canonised the 117 Vietnamese martyrs in 1988.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rr-cita\">\u201cOur Lady of La Vang, comfort of the persecuted, pray for us.\u201d<\/div>\n<div class=\"rr-nota\">The apparitions of La Vang are bound to the praying of the Rosary: it was while praying it that the persecuted faithful received the comfort of the Mother.<\/div>\n<div class=\"rr-btns\"><a class=\"rr-btn\" href=\"\/hi\/how-to-pray-the-rosary\/\">Pray the Rosary<\/a><a class=\"rr-btn\" href=\"\/en\/advocaciones-marianas\/\">All the advocations<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"rr-fuentes\"><strong>Sources:<\/strong> Shrine of La Vang (Archdiocese of Hu\u1ebf); Wikipedia (consulted 8-6-2026).
