What Does the Title Our Lady of Sorrows Mean (Joanne Wright)

Today we'll explore one of history's most well-known Marian apparitions, Our Lady of Guadalupe. In 1531, Our Lady appeared to Juan Diego near Mexico City. She brought with her a request that a church be built in her honor. Also unique is the fact that the Blessed Mother revealed herself to Juan Deigo by name, stating: "I want you to know for certain, my dear son, that I am the perfect and always Virgin MARY, Mother of the True God from Whom all life comes, the Lord of all things, Creator of Heaven and Earth." Join us today as we unpack the happenings that led to Mary's title as "Patroness of the Americas."
