OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE
"Listen and let it penetrate your heart . . . do not be troubled or weighed down with grief.
Do not fear any illness
or vexation, anxiety or pain.
Am I not here who am your Mother? Are you not under my shadow and protection? Am I not your fountain of life? Are you not in the folds of my mantle? In the crossing of my arms?
Is there anything else you need?"
(Our Lady's words to her servant Juan Diego)

ST. JUAN DIEGO, PRAY FOR US
We come to you, dear Juan Diego, chosen messenger of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
We ask you now to be our messenger.
Take this, our petition, to the throne of God, but take it first to our merciful mother, and receive her approving sign.
Then your voice will be magnified and will ring with the sweet authority of her own.
May you intercede on our behalf and may blessings fall from heaven, as roses fell from your mantle and revealed to us Mary's sacred image painted there by the finger of God for us to cherish forever.
St. Juan Diego, our heavenly messenger,
Pray for us!
