"Viva la Virgen de Guadalupe"

On Sunday, December 12, 2021, faithful from across our Diocese gathered at the Cathedral of Saint Patrick to celebrate The Annual Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Very Reverend Laurence LaPointe celebrated the Mass. Reverend Luis Henry Agudelo delivered a stirring Homily bookended by the words "Viva la Virgen de Guadalupe!" Upbeat mariachi music and a beautiful rendition of Ave Maria were among the many musical highlights.

Full video below. Enjoy!

“Do not let anything worry you; do not fear sickness, accident or pain. Am I not here, she who is your Mother? Are you not in the fold of my arms and under my protection? Is there anything else you need?”
Words of Our Lady to Juan Diego and to you.
