A Rather Complete Telling of the Apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe (Lk 1:26-38) (3 AD)

The apparition of Mary to the Aztec people near Mexico City was one of the greatest events of human history. Not only did the event cause from 8 to 10 million conversions to Christianity and shape the history of the Americas, but the Tilma of Juan Diego, with the image of our lady on it, that we still have at the Basilica in Mexico City is scientifically verified to be miraculous thus telling the story for all time of God‘s revelation and intervention in our world. In addition to be in miraculous, the image is most loving presentation of our faith to the Aztec people in their own language. The image contains the proclamation of the faith of the true God Jesus Christ son of Mary Queen of Heaven the One sacrifice acceptable to God for all time.
