Mexico Virgin of Guadalupe Pilgrimage (La Fiesta de la Virgen de Guadalupe)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 лют 2019
- The Virgin of Guadalupe is the patron saint of Mexico and she is inextricably tied to Mexican identity or ‘Mexicanidad’ (Mexicanness). We had the opportunity to witness the massive celebration dedicated to her that happens all over Mexico each year from December 9th to 12th. This religious and cultural event is even bigger than Christmas. It's known as the Pilgrimages of the Virgin of Guadalupe or la Fiesta de la Virgen de Guadalupe. The story of the the Virgin of Guadalupe goes back to 1531 near Mexico City. An indigenous farmer named Juan Diego was visited by the Virgin Mary who told him to tell the bishop to build a church in her name on that exact spot, known as Tepeyac Hill. She assured him to go and she would send a sign to show the bishop the veracity of Juan Diego’s claim. When Juan Diego opened his cloak, red roses fell from it and both men were shocked to see that the roses had left an image of the Virgin Mary imprinted on his cloak (tilma). This was the sign the bishop needed and the Basilica of Guadalupe was built on the very spot, as Mary wished.
Huge thank you to the Puerto Vallarta Tourism Board and ENroute Communications for inviting us to experience the Virgin of Guadalupe Pilgrimage in Puerto Vallarta.

Mijaaa Que lindo video uffff y llore contigo me trasmitistes esas emociones Que le llegan in El corazon Que es una sensation De paz te mando UN fuerte habrazo De Los Angeles USA. .
¡Muchas gracias y saludos en Los Angeles! Estoy tan contenta de que hayas disfrutado el video.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment. I also hope that love will overcome fear in the world. ❤️
Eileen Aldis, me quedé maravillado palpitaba mi corazón al mil por uno el ver el amor y alegría que proyectas en el vídeo...excepcional sin duda...gracias y sabes algo?...me hiciste ese día feliz y me sentí más orgulloso de mis raices....saludos hasta Los Angeles..
We love this video, Eileen! We felt like we were there with you, and were overcome by the collective love. I was in tears, too! Thank you for sharing such a beautiful occasion with us!!!
That means a lot to know, Linda - thank you for sharing that! It was a wonderful celebration of love and unity 💕
I am sat here, for the past couple minutes, trying to come to grips with what I just watched. And I was just literally wiping a tear from my eye. Words are almost failing me. Eileen I have so many favorite videos of yours, this is definitely near the top..if not at the pinnacle. Yes, I felt the emotion, I was indeed touched and moved..hence the misty eye...and not only when you held that beautiful baby. My heart was taken throughout. And that music only added to the sentiment. God Bless you guys. I want to give you both a hug.
Thank you so much, Scott! Somehow I missed your comment before - oops! I'm very happy to know you felt the emotion of this celebration as I did. It's a very special time and we felt lucky to be part of it. Hugs back :)
Thank you. Really enjoy your cheerful perspective. Hey, like that Canadian accent.
Viva Cristo Rey!
Viva La Virgen de Guadalupe!
Thank you! So glad to hear that :)
Its was really emotional for me.... Thanks.. Love it......¡Viva Mexico!!
Glad you also felt it, Odette 😘
Viva the people of Mexico and their faith in the light, in love and connectivity. A beautiful video. Thank you.
Viva Mexico!! Such a bright light ✨❤️
Nancy Johnson
Correction: the Mexican people's faith in GOD.
not your new age garbage.
Absolutely amazing.I felt like I was really there for this beautiful event. What an incredible job capturing such an amazing culture. The narration, music and editing was perfect. What a joy it was watching this video. Loved it very much. Viva Mexico.
I'm so glad you felt as though you were there with us! Very happy to share the joy of this event :)
I found myself emotionally taken a couple times during this video. I was struck by the concept of pilgrimage. In my opinion, the dedication to an idea, a faith, a hope; is admirable these days when dedications seem to change with each passing news cycle. We could all do to understand and draw from the underpinnings of this dedication and pilgrimage. Thank you for sharing, Eileen and Marc. We appreciate your sharing your experience.
You do not get anything of value in life without sacrifice, the bigger the goal, the bigger the sacrifice. Can anyone dispute this (religious and non-religious)?
Hi Mylon! Somehow I didn't see your comment until now! I really appreciate hearing your thoughtful reflection about this event and the video. It's truly a special time and I was honoured to be part of it. The energy in the air is really something you don't forget.
Literally the best, most beautiful and loving episode you two have ever done! We LOVE this :) Total respect to your heart and passion for your ability to reflect this amazing celebration of faith. One word, WOW. You brought tears of joy to our eyes and heart. Thank you :)
James and Kim

So beautifully captured, Eileen! Loved how you shared how touched you were.
Thank you, Melanie :) It's such a special event that I felt lucky to be there for. That's wonderful you experienced it as well!
What an amazing video Eileen and Marc! Thank you for showing the world our culture. I must say, I miss you guys and would love to be able to see you again in the future.

This video is the absolute best. It's a giant warm fuzzy and the perfect representation of why I love Mexico. Thank you for sharing your beautiful experience. A visit in December to experience it myself is now on my list.
Hi Krista, I'm just seeing your message now but appreciate it very much. Thank you ❤ The amount of warmth during this celebration is something I'll always remember.
One of the most moving culture-based travel videos ever!
Thank you! That means a lot to hear. If you enjoyed this video, I think you'll also really enjoyed this video we made about Holy Week in San Miguel de Allende: bit.ly/semanasantaSMA :)
I don't know how to translate this but: Me caes muy bien Eileen!
Always with a smile a lot of positivity, you transmit all good vibes... love your videos.
Thank you so much! That means a lot to hear ❤️
This is such a beautiful tradition. We really enjoyed the footage! It's so nice to see an entire community coming together for an event like this. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Yes, it's a wonderful tradition full of heart and we felt lucky to be there for it :)
Thank you for posting this video. You truly captured the essence of the event. I totally get how you felt when you held the baby and got emotional myself. How inspiring to see such devotion and faith. This is one of the best youtube travel videos I've seen (and I've seen a lot). You and Marc put out such great content!
Thank you so much for sharing that! It means a lot to know you felt the emotion of the event, as we did. Meeting the baby and connecting with him and his family was a true highlight I'll never forget. ❤️
Great Video Eileen, you made me miss Mexico, have you ever considered visiting San Juan de los Lagos?
So glad you enjoyed it, Oscar! I haven't really considered it but will now. Is that where you're from?
Hi Eileen,
I just watched your video on Antwerp and it was really beautiful to see that you were so moved by that plaque hanging at the harbour. But if you were moved by that I would REALLY reccomend visiting Ypres!
It's a Belgian city that was home to some of the worst battles in WW1, with the Battle of Paschendaele probably being the most notorious. The city was completely whiped of the face of the earth and the fields around it were turned into a hellish, apocalyptic landscape. Nowadays the city is completely rebuilt and you can rent a bike and visit the many historical landscapes, such as the famous Hill 60 or Hill 62, where you can still see the craters that were made there over a hundred years ago and even walk through some real trenches.
You can also visit some of the amazing war monuments like the breathtaking Tyne Cot cemetery, the biggest war cemetery in the entire world, of any war. There's also (among many more ofcourse) a cemetery dedicated to the German casualties wich are often overlooked because the were "the bad guys", a cemetery dedicated to the Canadian victims and the Essex Farm cemetary, dedicated to John Mcrae, the Canadian medic who wrote the famous 'In Flanders Fields' poem, on that exact place. Another big reccomendation is of course visiting one (or more) of the musea in the area, they are absolutely beautiful!
And then last but not least, there's The Last Post.It's a tradation kept alive for nearly one hundred years now, except for a brief period of German occupation during WW2. Every single day at exactly 8 o' clock there is a ceremony held at the Menin Gate called "The Last Post". It is used to commemorate the millions of lives that were lost during this 4 year stretch of complete madness, keeping the spirit of 'Lest We Forget' alive.
I hope I haven't killed it with this excessive text, but I have been there myself and it is by far the most mind boggeling experience I have ever had. Nothing quite captures the experience of actually walking through those rows of graves and actually seeing the devestation the War brought with it. I also know that my comment is a bit out of place here on this video, but I just really wanted to make sure you see this because I really think this will be something you'll never forget.
Great video's by the way, you earned a new subscriber today! 😊
Hi Victor, I appreciate your message and thank you for subscribing :) I can only imagine what visiting those sites must be like and it's something I'd really like to do. I feel it's important, if one has the privilege and opportunity to go. Thank you for sharing your passion and personal experience here.
I was born on December 12 n one of my dreams is to go visit the old church of La Virgin de Guadalupe.
That's so cool! Happy belated birthday, Jesus! I hope you achieve your dream. Where are you from?
I’m from San Antonio Texas. Happy Valentine’s Day!
@@jesuszepeda1062 Cool! I've never been to Texas but want to. Happy Valentine's to you too!
I wish I would get some tips on traveling Mexico. I’ve only been to Monterrey n the border. I would love to travel to different parts of Mexico.
@@jesuszepeda1062 That's great. Is there anywhere you'd like to visit in particular, aside from the basilica? We've spent a lot of time in Mexico and made a lot of videos if you'd like to see more here: bit.ly/MexicoPlaylist. Lots of amazing places to visit!
Beautiful Mexico and beautiful traditions

Tienes el soundtrack que le pusiste a tu video?
¡Hola! No, lo siento, creo que esta música proviene de Audio Network.
Literally to the 1% who's reading this, God bless you, and may your dreams come true, stay safe and have a wonderful day.
Despite Catholic protestations to the contrary, It is difficult for Atheists as well as Protestants not to have the impression that Catholics worship Mary, when they see pilgrims at Fatima or Guadalupe, Medjugorje or anywhere else, crawling on bloody knees toward Marian statues and shrines in order to bow down, kiss and kneel before Mary's statues.
Are you heading to Guadalajara afterwards?
Unfortunately Marc and I have STILL not been to Guadalajara but we really, REALLY want to. Everyone tells us how amazing it is and how much we'll vibe it. We'll definitely get there someday - hopefully sooner than later :)
What did I just watch?
What is the country or city that has made you feel best
That's a very hard question, but Mexico certainly has a special place in my heart ❤
All I could think about whilst watching this is getting a Kleenex and wiping that sweat between his eyes.
I didn’t see it maybe next time I could see it on December 12, 2024
I hope you can see it this year! Do you often visit Puerto Vallarta?
Gente PERDIDA
Nomas a DIOS PADRE se ADORA..
Lucas 4:8

Read the GOSPEL. IDOLATRY IS BLASPHEMY AGAINST GOD. JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS AND IS ONLY WORTHY OF WORSHIP
keep it up!
Thank you! ❤
