OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE, MOTHER OF THE TRUE GOD,
PRAY FOR US.

We believe the angel Gabriel's words to Mary that "nothing will be impossible for God" (Lk 1:37). So since there is no need to be afraid (Lk 1:30) then, we join Mary and say: "My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior" (Lk 1:46).

JOSEPH, CHASTE GUARDIAN OF THE VIRGIN,
PRAY FOR US.
