A Virgin A Day: Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe

God of power and mercy,
you blessed the Americas at Tepeyac
with the presence of the Virgin Mary of Guadalupe.
May her prayers help all men and women
to accept each other as brothers and sisters. 
Through your justice present in our hearts 
may Your peace reign in the world.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with You
and the Holy Spirit, one God, 
for ever and ever.


The image of Mary presented here
shows a close resemblance
to Our Lady of Guadalupe.
I thought that this image
came from here, 
but when I returned to the site,
I was unable to find it.
If any of you are familiar
with this icon,
please enlighten me.
Thank you.

our last day of
A Virgin A Day
hosted by the inimitable
Rebecca
thank you, dear Rebecca!

    A most unusual piece of folk art and a powerful prayer.

    This is a very unusual icon and I hope you ultimately find it's source. I haven't seen one like this before and I like it very much. A very merry Christmas to you and yours and I'll see you here at Rebecca's site. This prayer is mystical and beautiful.
