2nd c. Roman catacombs displayed the Blessed Mother nourishing baby Jesus, continuing through the centuries in European art. In Madrid, a pious husband prayed to a rescued statue of Our Lady of Milk and Good Delivery when his pregnant wife was facing death; Our Lady heard the pleas, granting her a joyous delivery. Her powerful intercession spread to King Phillip II of Spain who built a sanctuary, popularizing the devotion in Spain. On September 8, 1565, Spanish colonists performed the first Mass in America in St. Augustine, FL, dedicating the first chapel and Marian shrine to Our Lady of La Leche. Patron of safe delivery and nursing mothers
