Our Lady of Guadalupe | In Search of Holy Treasure

No church in Latin America attracts as many pilgrims as the Basilica of Santa Maria de Guadalupe, in Mexico. Among the treasures of the basilica is a tilma, similar to a sleeveless coat previously worn by the Indians of Central America. The tilma of Guadalupe is very special: it displays a miraculous image of the Virgin Mary just as she appeared to Juan Diego, a Mexican peasant, in 1531.
