St. Juan Diego

Join Br. Ruben Veloz, MIC as he shares with us the story of Our Lady of Guadalupe (feast day: Dec. 12), one of the most famous Marian Apparitions of all time - as well as one that still continues to this day with Our Lady's appearance on the tilma of St. Juan Diego (feast day: Dec. 9).

Why is St. Juan Diego's tilma called miraculous? Why is Our Lady of Guadalupe known as the protectress of life? Join Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, as he explores the events surrounding the apparition of Our Lady on the hill in Tepeyac near Mexico City and explains the miracles associated with the Tilma.... why it cannot be explained.

We need such virtues because, as the Gospels say, "the kingdom of heaven suffers violence" as a result of evil in the world (Mt 11:12).

Mary tells us to "do whatever He (Jesus) tells you." Saint Juan Diego demonstrates for us the importance of doing whatever Mary tells us, as well.
