The miraculous story of the Heavenly Mother statue. Interview with Cardinal Giorgio Marengo

Mongolia is one of the twenty largest countries in the world, but with a very small community of Catholics, numbering only about 1, 500. The Catholic Church here began to take shape only 30 years ago. All the more surprising is the fact that back in 2013, a Buddhist woman found a wooden statue of the Virgin Mary among the garbage in a dump in the north of the country. Late last year, Mongolia was entrusted to the intercession of the Virgin Mary and a mantle sewn from scraps was placed on the statue of the Heavenly Mother. Cardinal Giorgio Marengo told Catholic Inform about the history of the discovery of the statue, how the name was chosen for it and what the mantle placed on it at the end of last year represents.
