“Through the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe, many have seen Christ touch people’s lives in inexplicable ways. Recall as she said to St. Juan Diego, ‘I am your Merciful Mother who wishes to hear and help all those who invoke and place their confidence in me.’ With this in mind, let us all move forward in promoting a greater devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe!”
