Saint Juan Diego 1474-1548 Feast day: December 9 Patronage: America and Natives

Saint Juan Diego was an indigenous Mexican who embraced the Catholic faith, spread by the Spanish friars, that came with Cortez. On December 9th, 1531, Our Lady appeared to him on Tepeyac Hill (Guadalupe), as he was going to Mass, asking for a church to be built on that spot. After convincing the skeptical Bishop of the authenticity of the apparition, through Mary’s miraculous image on his tilma (cloak) and Castillian roses spilling out when he opened the tilma, the Bishop had the church built. Thousands of conversions occurred, when the tilma, with Our Lady’s image on it, was processed through Mexico City. St. Juan Diego spent the rest of his life as the caretaker of the tilma and telling the story of the apparition. The tilma can be seen today in the basilica in Mexico City.

Mother Guadulupe

Es así, no digo que no se deba socializar, pero ya cuando empiezan con esos dramas pendejos sacados de la Rosa de Guadulupe, hay que pasar. El 80% de los casos son personas que en la vida real no reciben atención y vienen a este mundillo tan bonito a generar estrés en gente que solo quiere divertirse. Cuando empiezan con estupideces yo les freno el carro y sigo con lo mio, respondo mis roles, cumplo con mis actividades de admin y a otra cosa. Al final se van solitos (no sin antes hacer berrinche, obvio). Basta de encajarnos la famosa "responsabilidad afectiva", cuando esto es un puto hobbie, no una relación de pareja. Hay que rolear y no joder a los demás.

Como alguien que sufre de ansiedad || Otra amsioso presente (?), concuerdo con el anon. Soy de la clase de persona que hace login, ve lo que debe, lo responde y adiós; me han tachado de borde, pero el rol llevado a lo social es bien jodido y eso lo aprendes por las malas. Es más, una situación offrol fue mi empujón para ir al psicólogo y de ahí que no quiero estar pendiente del flujo del foro, en los tiempos de ahora es estrés gratis

Somos del mismo club al parecer, vengo a rolear, no a socializar ni a enterarme de vidas que no me interesan, que agotador. B⊕REDOM

“Si gritás te pego un tiro”: el desgarrador relato de una joven que evitó que la violen

“¿Qué pasaba si yo era de esas personas que el miedo las paraliza? Este hijo de la mierda me agarraba, me arrastraba hasta el descampado que está ahí nomás y me violaba. Quizás me pegaba un tiro. Y aparecía muerta, como otras tantas”, escribió Guadulupe en el hilo de Twitter en el que narró cómo un hombre intentó abusarla en Río Negro.

“Acaban de intentar violarme por segunda vez en General Roca.…

The feast in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe goes back to the 16th century. Chronicles of that period tell us the story.

A poor Indian named Cuauhtlatohuac was baptized and given the name Juan Diego. He was a 57-year-old widower, and lived in a small village near Mexico City. On Saturday morning December 9, 1531, he was on his way to a nearby barrio to attend Mass in honor of Our Lady.

Juan was walking by a hill called Tepeyac when he heard beautiful music like the warbling of birds. A radiant cloud appeared, and within it stood an Indian maiden dressed like an Aztec princess. The lady spoke to him in his own language and sent him to the bishop of Mexico, a Franciscan named Juan de Zumarraga. The bishop was to build a chapel in the place where the lady appeared.

Eventually the bishop told Juan to have the lady give him a sign. About this same time Juan’s uncle became seriously ill. This led poor Juan to try to avoid the lady. Nevertheless the lady found Juan, assured him that his uncle would recover, and provided roses for Juan to carry to the bishop in his cape or tilma.

On December 12, when Juan Diego opened his tilma in the bishop’s presence, the roses fell to the ground, and the bishop sank to his knees. On the tilma where the roses had been appeared an image of Mary exactly as she had appeared at the hill of Tepeyac.

Mary’s appearance to Juan Diego as one of his people is a powerful reminder that Mary—and the God who sent her—accept all peoples. In the context of the sometimes rude and cruel treatment of the Indians by the Spaniards, the apparition was a rebuke to the Spaniards and an event of vast significance for the indigenous population. While a number of them had converted before this incident, they now came in droves. According to a contemporary chronicler, nine million Indians became Catholic in a very short time. In these days when we hear so much about God’s preferential option for the poor, Our Lady of Guadalupe cries out to us that God’s love for and identification with the poor is an age-old truth that stems from the Gospel itself.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary of Guadalupe, that in thy celestial apparitions on the mount of Tepeyac, thou didst promise to show thy compassion and pity towards all who, loving and trusting thee, seek thy help and call upon thee in their necessities and afflictions.

Thou didst promise to hearken to our supplications, to dry our tears and to give us consolation and relief. Never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, either for the common welfare, or in personal anxieties, was left unaided.

Inspired with this confidence, we fly unto thee, O Mary, ever Virgin Mother of the True God! Though grieving under the weight of our sins, we come to prostrate ourselves in thy august presence, certain that thou wilt deign to fulfill thy merciful promises. We are full of hope that, standing beneath thy shadow and protection, nothing will trouble or afflict us, nor need we fear illness, or misfortune, or any other sorrow.

Thou hast decided to remain with us through thy admirable image, thou who art our Mother, our health and our life. Placing ourselves beneath thy maternal gaze and having recourse to thee in all our necessities we need do nothing more. O Holy Mother of God, despise not our petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer us. [Here mention your petition.]

Five Hail Marys. (in gratitude for the four apparitions to Juan Diego and the one to Juan Bernardino).
