Join us on Sunday, October 25, and Monday, October 26, to venerate the pilgrim images of Our Lady of Guadalupe (La Peregrina) and Saint Juan Diego, gifts from the Basilica in Mexico City to our Archdiocese.

Our veneration and prayers will be part of the annual spiritual pilgrimage leading up to the Archdiocesan celebration in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe and Saint Juan Diego on December 6, 2020.

The images will be displayed at all Sunday Masses on Sunday, October 25. Parishioners are invited to come to the garden throughout the afternoon for private prayer.

The Sunday devotion will conclude with Adoration, Rosary, Procession through Figueroa Plaza, and Benediction beginning at 6:00 PM.

Monday devotion private devotion and group Ministry devotions.  Monday 6:00 PM Adoration, Rosary and Benediction concludes the pilgrimage visitation.

“How does this happen to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” (Luke 1:43). Two-thousand years ago, our Blessed Mother visited her cousin Elizabeth and almost five-hundred years ago, she visited the native people of this continent as Our Lady of Guadalupe, and today she continues to visit her people.

During her apparitions to St. Juan Diego, our Blessed Mother interceded for the healing of his uncle Juan Bernardino. During this time of pandemic, in which people are suffering physically, emotionally, spiritually, and financially, our Blessed Mother wants to continue to visit her children bringing God’s healing mercy and message of hope to our communities. This year’s Guadalupe Procession and Mass theme, “Our Lady of Guadalupe: Mother of Healing and Hope,” reflects on the importance of the presence of our Blessed Mother in our lives, especially during these challenging times.

With Pope Francis’ designation of our Mission parish as a minor basilica — the first in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles — we are united more closely with the Holy Father and Rome.
This honor brings with it the need for external appointments that denote a basilica, for which we seek your support. These appointments include:
—Ombrellino (papal umbrella in the sanctuary): $11,309.
—Tintinnabulum (processional bell the in sanctuary): $675.
—Mission Basilica Heraldic Coat of Arms: $5,600.
—Main Street Flag Poles (Papal,
California, U.S.): $2,500.
—Exterior Papal Keys Emblem: $1,500.
—Framed Papal Documents in the Mission: $300.
—Exterior Doors and Garden Banners: $900.

The good news is that we have already received $12,250 for this fund! And all are invited to participate in helping to raise funds still needed.

To express gratitude for your generosity, all who contribute to the appointments are eligible to win a beautiful rosary made of silver and cultured pearls, as described in the bulletin in recent weeks. We will hold a drawing in the near future to determine the recipient of the rosary.

Our parish strives to be of service to others, to be an outward sign of God’s love and care for all, and to fully celebrate our sacred liturgies and solemnities.
