The Diocese of Norwich joyfully invites all the faithful to celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Patroness of the Americas and Star of the New Evangelization. This beautiful evening of prayer and thanksgiving will be held Friday, December 12, 2025, at the Cathedral of St. Patrick, 201 Broadway, Norwich.
The celebration will begin at 6:30 p.m. with the recitation of the Holy Rosary and an opportunity for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. A bilingual Holy Mass will follow at 7:00 p.m., with The Most Reverend Richard G. Reidy, Bishop of Norwich, serving as principal celebrant.
Following Mass, all are invited to stay for a festive reception honoring Our Lady— a joyful evening of music, food, and fellowship in her honor.
As we come together to remember Our Lady’s tender words to St. Juan Diego, we are reminded of her enduring message of love and protection:
“Do not let anything worry you; do not fear sickness, accident or pain.
Am I not here, I who am your Mother?
Are you not under my protection?
Are you not in the folds of my mantle, in the crossing of my arms?
Is there anything else you would need?”
— Words of Our Lady to Juan Diego … and to you!
Come celebrate the Mother of God who continues to draw hearts to her Son through faith, hope, and joy.
