Our Lady of Guadalupe
December 12 marks the anniversary of the second apparition of Mary to Juan Diego in 1531. Our Lady favored her humble servant with a miraculous sign – filling his cloak with dozens of roses (which could not have grown anywhere nearby during December) and leaving her beautiful image imprinted on it. In the centuries since, veneration to Our Lady of Guadalupe has been especially strong throughout Mexico, with the now-famous image becoming a highly revered symbol of the country’s national identity. Mary’s tender motherhood of all peoples of the earth is called to mind on this day.
We invite you to browse AMM’s selection of religious gift items highlighting the traditional Guadalupe image.
