NOVENA TO OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE
Begins this Wednesday, December 3, 2025
Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared miraculously on the cloak of St. Juan Diego in Mexico in 1531, leaving her sacred image as a pregnant indigenous woman that became instrumental in the evangelization of Latin America. Today, she is a beloved symbol of Catholicism in Mexico and beyond, representing unity, compassion, comfort, and liberation. Her feast day on December 12th, marking the anniversary of her appearance, draws millions of pilgrims to the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City. Devotion to her involves veneration of the miraculous tilma relic, recitation of the Guadalupe novena, spreading the story of her apparition, and building faith in her powerful intercession. She is seen as the Mother of all in the Americas who leads souls to Christ.
