About this sermon
Hundreds of thousands of pilgrims in the US made their way to Our Lady of Guadalupe's shrine in Des Plaines, Illinois. Many of them, walking or biking for hours from Chicago to the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe. The annual crusade is now the largest gathering of Roman Catholic pilgrims in the United States. Fellow pilgrim, Fernando Gomez, joins to share what this massive pilgrimage is like. He traveled 30 miles from Waukegan, Illinois to the shrine and tells us how he prepared for his own pilgrimage. Originally from Mexico, Gomez discusses the shrine in Des Plaines and how it measures up to the real thing. When people think of Chicago, they think of St. Patrick's Day and deep dish pizza. Gomez explains why he thinks this feast day is growing in popularity in the Windy City. He fills us in on what he thinks it is about the Virgin Mary's message to Juan Diego so many years ago that resonates with so many people, including many Americans.
