Go on Pilgrimage

July 2026

We come as pilgrims to this place, and we ask the Virgin of Guadalupe to be a mother to us, and to renew us in the love of her Son.

-Archbishop Gomez

Each year, faithful from across the Archdiocese of Los Angeles unite in prayer and devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe, entrusting their hopes, needs, and thanksgiving to her maternal care. On July 11, Archbishop José H. Gomez once again celebrated a special Mass at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City, where he carried with him over 45,000 prayer intentions from LA Catholics, placing them before Our Blessed Mother.

This year held particular significance as we mark the 495th anniversary of the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe to Saint Juan Diego—a moment that continues to shape the faith and identity of our local Church.

Cada año, fieles de toda la Arquidiócesis de Los Ángeles se unen en oración y devoción a Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe y confían sus esperanzas, necesidades y acciones de gracias a su cuidado maternal. El 11 de julio, el Arzobispo José H. Gomez celebró una vez más una Misa especial en la Basílica de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe en la Ciudad de México y llevo más de 45,000 intenciones de oración de los fieles de Los Ángeles, presentándolas ante Nuestra Santísima Madre.

Este año tuvo un significado especial ya que celebramos el 495º aniversario de la aparición de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe a San Juan Diego, un hecho que sigue dando forma a la fe y la identidad de nuestra iglesia local.

495 Years Later, Our Lady Is Still Calling Her Children Home

There is something extraordinary about walking up Tepeyac Hill. With every step, your heart begins to slow down (opposite of what happens in a typical uphill workout), and your eyes take in the place where heaven touched earth. It is almost impossible not to reflect on the generations of pilgrims who have climbed this same hill before you.
