Celebrating Our Lady of Guadalupe Our Lady of Guadalupe (Spanish: Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe), also known as the Virgin of Guadalupe (Spanish: Virgen de
Guadalupe; Nahuatl: Tonantzin Guadalupe) is
a celebrated Catholic icon of the Virgin Mary.
According to tradition, on December 9, 1531 Juan Diego, a simple indigenous peasant, had a vision of a young woman while he was on a hill in the Tepeyac de-sert, near Mexico City. The lady told him to build a church exactly on the spot where they were standing. He told the lo-cal bishop, who asked for some proof. He went back and had the vision again. He told the lady that the bishop wanted proof, and she said "Bring the roses behind you." Turning to look, he found a rose bush growing behind him. He cut the roses, placed them in his poncho and returned to the bishop, saying he had brought proof. When he opened his poncho, instead of roses, there was an image of the young lady in the vision.
According to the account of Juan Diego, the Virgin Mary described herself

using the Aztec Nahuatl word-name of C o a t l a x o p e u h ( p r o n o u n c e d "quatlachupe") which the Spanish misun-derstood as being the word "Guadalupe". In Nahuatl "Coa" meant serpent, "tla" the noun ending which can be interpreted as "the", and "xopeuh" means to crush or to stamp out, translating to mean: the one "who crushes the serpent," although Glo-ria Anzaldua translates it as "the one who is at one with the beasts" (Gloria An-zaldua, Borderlands, 3rd ed., p. 51). This reflects Catholic theology, in understand-ing that Mary is the woman described in the twelfth chapter of St. John's Apoca-lypse.
Today, the icon is displayed in the nearby Basilica of Guadalupe, now one of the most visited Catholic shrines in the world.
[1] The Virgin of Guadalupe is Mex-
ico's most popular religious and cultural image, with the titles "Queen of Mexico",[2]
"Empress of the Americas",[3]
and "Patroness of the Americas";
[4] both Mi-
guel Hidalgo (in the Mexican War of Inde-pendence) and Emiliano Zapata (during the Mexican Revolution) carried flags bearing the Our Lady of Guadalupe, and Guadalupe Victoria, the first Mexican president changed his name in honor of the icon.
There will be a vigil Mass on Wednesday,
Dec 7th at 6:00pm
Also no Confessions on Saturday, Dec.
10th due to Our Lady of Guadalupe Mass
