The Philippine pilgrimage of the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe will culminate in a two-day thanksgiving celebration at Manila’s Quirino Grandstand on Dec. 11 and 12, following visits to dozens of churches across the country.
The Our Lady of Guadalupe Philippine Pilgrimage Committee said the gathering will bring devotees together for prayer and thanksgiving, with an overnight vigil marking the feast of the Marian image.
“Everyone is invited to take part in the celebration of the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe and in thanksgiving for the conclusion of her journey across the Philippines from Mexico,” the committee said in a statement.
The event aims to unite Filipino devotees in faith and devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, it added.
According to the schedule, the pilgrim image will arrive at the Quirino Grandstand from Manila City Hall at 6 p.m. on Dec. 11, followed by an opening Mass at 8 p.m.
An overnight Holy Rosary vigil and veneration will begin at 10:30 p.m. and continue until noon on Dec. 12.
