Our Lady of Guadalupe and Juan Diego

This is a detail from a background template I painted. This eventually made it into a curriculum on Marian Consecration which I developed for the Diocese of Metuchen, NJ, for their Lighting Hearts on Fire program.

“Listen, put it into your heart, my youngest son, that what frightened you, what afflicted you, is nothing; do not let it disturb your face, your heart; do not fear this sickness nor any other sickness, nor any sharp and hurtful thing. Am I not here?”
