picture of her image that appeared on Juan Diego's cloak. Hang

tissue paper (you can find easy directions on line) and place
them in a vase near Mary's picture.
- Together with your family, pray the rosary by the shrine you
have made.

of Guadalupe, the story of her appearance to Juan Diego and show
