Tarjeta Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe

Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe badge ... Our Lady of Guadalupe ... In December 1531 the Virgin Mary appeared upon a hill to an Aztec Juan Diego asking him to build her a chapel there. She wore a rose color garment with designs of plants for Her Worldly association and a turquoise blue robe with gold stars for her Heavenly association. When the Spanish Archbishop demanded proof of a miracle She provided Spanish roses which the Aztec Juan Diego took to the Spanish Archbishop in his cloak or tilma ... when the roses spilled to the floor there appeared the image of the Virgin Mary upon the cloak tilma. This image still exists encased upon the altar of the chapel built upon the hill in Mexico City. This image is one of the most popular of devotional images in the World, today. She is always shown surrounded by dazzling light ... which was how She appeared to Juan Diego. Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe Portapapeles ... Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe ... En diciembre de 1531 la Virgen María se apareció en una colina a un azteca Juan Diego pidiéndole que le construyera una capilla allí. Llevaba una prenda de color rosa con diseños de plantas para su asociación mundana y una túnica azul turquesa con estrellas doradas para su asociación celestial. Cuando el arzobispo español exigió prueba de un milagro, ella proporcionó rosas españolas que el azteca Juan Diego llevó al arzobispo español en su manto o tilma ... cuando las rosas se derramaron por el suelo apareció la imagen de la Virgen María sobre el manto tilma . Esta imagen aún existe encerrada en el altar de la capilla construida sobre el cerro en la Ciudad de México. Esta imagen es una de las imágenes devocionales más populares del mundo en la actualidad. Siempre se la muestra rodeada de luz deslumbrante ... así se le apareció a Juan Diego. I write this note in January 2026 ... 4 1/2 years ago, I was driving home after working 2nd shift, when a semi truck crashed into the back of my small car crushing the upper part of the back end of my car all the way up to my rear window shoving my car and me across the highway, over the median, turning my car a full revolution ending up onto the shoulder of the highway on the opposite side facing oncoming traffic. I was miraculously unharmed and able to open my driver door and exit my still running car. The semi truck never stopped. It was a hit and run accident. In the rear of my car was this badge just like the one shown here. Still perfectly unharmed as well. Same day I walked a half mile to see a doctor to get approved to return to work immediately same day except I still needed to replace my car. I still drive the car I bought then. I am now age 73 1/2 ... I was age 69 when that semi truck crashed into me. I often wondered if having this badge clipped to my lunchbox was proof of a miracle. mark
