In December 1531, on the hill of Tepeyac outside Mexico City, the Virgin Mary appeared to a humble Indigenous man, St. Juan Diego, and left her image miraculously imprinted on his tilma. Nearly five hundred years later, the tilma still hangs in the Basilica of Guadalupe, visited by millions, and within a decade of the apparition millions had been baptized. Her image, a sign of unity and divine grace, remains a beacon of hope and a call to faith.
