Name


Our Lady of Victory is named in honor of Mary. The story behind Our Lady of Victory is Pope Pius V told all of Europe to pray the Rosary for their army because they were heavily outnumbered by the Ottomans. Because they prayed for Mary's intercession, she helped them to win the battle over and stun the Ottomans. Since the battle was won, with help of Mary, she is called Our Lady of Victory.
