Dec 11, 2016 by Veronica Mena
Devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe is part of Mexico's identity, and most Mexicans are proud to call themselves Guadalupanos.
For other Hispanic and non-Hispanic countries, the affection for the Mother of God is borderless, and creates unity among Catholics in America and around the world. Through this apparition Our Lady has increased the faith in many people's lives, and comforted us with her tender words:
"Am I not here, I, who am your mother?
And are you not under my shadow and my protection?"
- Our Lady of Guadalupe's words to St. Juan Diego
Our Lady of Guadalupe's feast day is celebrated in Advent on December 12th. She is the patroness of Mexico, Philippines, and all of the Americas, as well as of unborn children, the pro-life movement, and the New Evangelization.

Immaculate Heart of Mary,
Heart of my Mother, Our Lady of Guadalupe,
