Hundreds of Faithful Celebrate Our Lady of Guadalupe Feast

On Monday, December 12, 2022, faithful from across our Diocese gathered at the Cathedral of Saint Patrick to celebrate The Annual Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Reverend Robert Washabaugh celebrated the Mass.  Reverend Michael Castiblanco delivered a stirring Homily. Upbeat mariachi music and a beautiful Communion meditation were among the many musical highlights.

Words of Our Lady to Juan Diego and to you.
