00:30The Virgin of the Oak has a very special characteristic: she has been present in Monterrey since the founding of Monterrey, even a little before the founding of Monterrey, as we shall see.
00:45It is not the only one; there are many experiences in which Mary has been present, to name a few, but the Virgin Mary will always be present throughout evangelization.
01:04And I would like to make this very clear: the Virgin Mary and all devotion to the Virgin Mary never has meaning in itself, because the Virgin Mary does not lead us to the Virgin Mary; who does she lead us to?
01:21To Jesus, okay? From the moment she conceives Jesus in her womb, the first thing she does is go and share him, she doesn't stay and say, now I am the mother of the Savior, come to me, and sit on a throne and say, attend to me, right?
01:39Because she is not the center of that announcement, she is not the center of that life she carries within her, she recognizes it and lives it throughout her life and that is why her example is so excellent for all of us, she lives for others, she lives to bring Jesus to others.
01:59From the moment she visits her mother Elizabeth, the first thing Elizabeth recognizes is, "Why is this granted to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?"
02:10From that moment we realize how Mary is an evangelizer, bringing Jesus to others.
02:17Then, when Jesus begins his public life, according to the Gospel of John, it is Mary who gives him the push, isn't it?
02:25If you remember that passage about the wedding at Cana, right? At the wedding at Cana, Jesus tells them, "Go because they have no wine."
02:34Well, and Jesus tells him, "My time has not yet come." He said, "Of course not! Bring up the idea of the water jars and he'll get to work right away, won't he?"
02:43What did Maria do? She didn't do it so people would say, "Look how much influence she has."
02:49I insist again, I wasn't looking at her, I wasn't looking out for her needs.
02:56Since then, Mary has been like an intercessory mother, attentive to the needs of her children, to reality.
03:05And so we can see how Mary initiates Jesus into public life, so to speak, or into miracles.
03:13Now, we could say, well, many popes have reflected on this in their encyclicals,
03:19how the origin of the mystery of Mary lies in the fact that she not only conceives Jesus in her womb,
03:29but gives birth to the children of the body of Christ, that is, the church, in his heart.
03:37She is our mother, not only, to put it as a moral obligation, so go on, take care of these.
03:48No, she truly gives birth to us, she is truly and really our mother, because she carries us in her heart.
03:55Because on the cross, do you remember?
03:59She is also suffering the pains of childbirth, of a second delivery.
04:03If in the first instance, without suffering labor pains, she conceived Jesus, in the second, suffering as if they were labor pains,
04:11Or worse still, by seeing his son die, he gives birth to all of us.
04:17Therefore, the mystery of Mary is intimately linked to Jesus and through Jesus to all of us.
04:27Any one of us can say with complete clarity and right, I have Mary as my mother.
04:37It's not just a devotion, it's not just a moral issue, it's not just a pretty thing, no, it's real.
04:45Mary has given birth to faith and brought us into the body of her son,
04:50And that is why we are members of the body of Christ.
04:54In that sense, he participates together with Jesus, or by serving Jesus, in the mystery of Jesus' redemption.
05:02She is not the redeemer, we agree, we cannot confuse her with Jesus.
05:07The only redeemer is Jesus.
05:10However, Mary is always progressing on the path of the church.
05:16If she was conceiving Jesus, and if she brought Jesus to the Virgin, sorry, to Saint Elizabeth,
05:25and if he accompanied Jesus during his public life,
05:29He also accompanied the church when it began to be a church.
05:34In other words, when can the community of Jesus' disciples be called a Christian community?
05:44although it will still be some years before they are called that,
05:47This is when these disciples begin to announce that Jesus died on the cross and was resurrected by the Father.
05:56This has led some theologians to ask, when does the church begin to exist?
06:04Well, some say it was at the Last Supper, or when he told Peter,
06:07You are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church.
06:10Whether it was when he preached the kingdom, when he died, or when he resurrected.
06:15The truth is that the church needs that whole process,
06:20But the day that Jesus announces begins to exist.
06:23The whole point of being a Christian is to proclaim Jesus, not to be a Christian for oneself.
06:33Since Mary is not a mother to herself, Mary is a mother to bring Jesus into the world, do we agree?
06:40Well, we are Christians to proclaim Jesus,
06:44We are not Christians for anything other than going to mass,
06:48We are not Christians just to pray the rosary.
06:50If we go to Mass and pray the rosary, it is to proclaim Jesus.
06:57to have the strength, to have the wisdom, to bring Jesus.
07:03Almost all of you must be mothers,
07:07And you were called not only,
07:10and they are called not only to bring their children into the natural world,
07:14As Christians, you are also called to bring your children to supernatural life.
07:21And perhaps they fulfilled, I believe so, their obligation to baptize him.
07:26But it doesn't end there.
07:27If it had ended there, Mary would have finished the day she gave birth to Jesus, right?
07:31However, Mary continues to be present among us, always accompanying the church.
07:38A very beautiful quote from Dante Ligieri, uttered by Pope Paul VI, which says,
07:43You are the one who was so ennobled, that is to say, you are so beautiful that even your creator
07:50He wanted to be a part of your life, of your very flesh.
07:55Thus, we see how she holds a privileged place within the church.
08:04She's not just another saint, nor is she Jesus, because she's not God, do we agree?
08:10She is neither God, nor just another baptized person.
08:15She holds a privileged position within the church,
08:19because she was not only conceived as a daughter of God,
08:26but also begot us as children of God in his heart.
08:30And for this reason, he accompanies us in fulfilling our mission through his holiness.
08:35because of his example, because of his condition.
08:37So we can say that the Virgin Mary
08:42It always has Jesus Christ as its starting point.
08:47We will never be able, I repeat, to talk about Maria
08:51without making reference to Christ.
08:54We always talk about Mary with many titles such as mediator, helper, etc.
09:00But no title of this could be given to it.
09:03if Christ did not exist.
09:07Do we agree?
09:08Therefore, the only mediator in grace is Jesus.
09:15By sharing in that grace, she can help us.
09:21It is the conduit through which grace is granted to us.
09:26It's a bridge, so to speak.
09:29She is an intercessor in this life of grace.
09:31And always, always in the church, when there is a story of evangelization, there is Mary.
09:40I remember talking to some missionaries
09:42that they went to very, very, no, well, difficult places because they were not Christians.
09:51So, as I was saying, well, how do you start?
09:53He says, it's very simple, start praying the rosary, teach them the rosary.
10:02Before speaking to them about the word of God, before speaking to them about celebrating the Eucharist,
10:07Go to small houses to pray the rosary.
10:11And with the rosary, Mary will lead them to Jesus.
10:15He says, and that's how communities are formed.
10:17Mary is always present in evangelization,
10:20That's why she has all these titles, lawyer of all kinds.
10:24Mother of Perpetual Help, Perpetual Help and Star of Evangelization.
10:31So, I'm going to apply this a little more realistically to your own families.
10:39I know that you may struggle a little to evangelize your children
10:42and to evangelize their families.
10:47Guess how they have to start.
10:48Hand in hand with Maria.
10:52She is the one who has always guided the church in evangelization.
10:59We can implement 25,000 new methods,
11:03But if we don't go hand in hand with him, it will most likely be more difficult.
11:07I'm not saying we'll fail, but we are making our job harder.
11:11So, there have been many throughout history.
11:15Why are there so many?
11:17Because it is always present in a process of evangelization.
11:22Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Perpetual Help,
11:27the Immaculate Conception,
11:29All of these are images that remind us of the graces that Jesus wants to give us to be saved.
11:39We also have different experiences on different continents.
11:44And it really catches my attention because Maria, to put it one way,
11:50He allows himself to be portrayed with the features of each people.
11:56We found this beautiful Virgin of Carmen in Africa.
12:01A Virgin of Carmen, China.
12:09And this is the Vietnamese one.
12:13So, the Virgin always tries to take the form of those children she wants to evangelize.
12:23Are there many virgins?
12:25No, it's just one.
12:27But as a mother, she approaches us so that she can take her son with her.
12:33And this is another great example, isn't it?
12:35A great example of how Mary, as an evangelist,
12:39It does not assume a prototype, so to speak.
12:42This has to be how everyone else has to look.
12:45No.
12:46If we put all the images we have of the religious devotions
12:50and the ways in which we dress these devotions,
12:53Because we have the same vocation with different images, right?
12:58We understand that this must also be the case in evangelization.
13:02We cannot evangelize everyone equally.
13:06We have to learn how to support each other with each one.
13:10And well, we have
13:11Our Most Holy Mother of Guadalupe.
13:15Our Most Holy Mother of Guadalupe
13:17It is a true revelation of how Mary accompanies the evangelizers.
13:26She herself, this image, is a gospel, she is good news.
13:32She herself teaches us evangelizers
13:35What do we have to do to evangelize?
13:37To become inculturated.
13:40That word sounds really ugly, but it means
13:42to become one with the people.
13:47Accept their ways of communicating,
13:49accept their ways of seeing life,
13:52to assume nature
13:53and speak to them about Jesus in their own language.
13:58Because Jesus is a universal message,
14:01but it can have different forms.
14:03And then, our Blessed Mother of Guadalupe
14:06She teaches us how she will always accompany evangelization.
14:12We're talking about 1531, right?
14:201531.
14:21Evangelization was beginning.
14:24The Spanish, who know and who understand
14:28that in order to evangelize they need our Blessed Mother,
14:32They carry their images with them.
14:34When we go to see the images
14:36What do the Tlaxcalans do?
14:38guided by Spanish ideas,
14:42we're going to realize
14:42that this, that this image,
14:46Nobody could have painted it.
14:48The truth.
14:49Oh well.
14:50In this context of evangelization
14:53of these lands,
14:54We found the testimony
14:57precisely of the Virgin of the Oak.
15:00Our Lady of the Oak
15:01It's an image that we're going to see in a moment.
15:05made by the Tlaxcalans.
15:09However,
15:10It is an image brought by the Spanish.
15:12to these lands of the New Kingdom of León.
15:15And she is brought here to begin guiding
15:18evangelization
15:19of some tribes
15:22very difficult to evangelize.
15:25Okay?
15:25So,
15:27Our Most Holy Mother of the Oak,
15:30who is the patron saint of Monterrey,
15:32because it is,
15:33I insist again,
15:34from the beginning
15:35from the founding of Monterrey,
15:38is one,
15:39We could put it like that,
15:41mother who accompanies us
15:43in evangelization,
15:44a helper
15:45of our evangelization.
15:47Sadly,
15:48We've been losing that.
15:50and we bring from pilgrims
15:52how many images
15:54that occur to us,
15:55less
15:56which accompanied us
15:58for 400 years
16:00on this earth.
16:02Yes, they have.
16:02in other times,
16:04in these 400 years,
16:06When was the Marian year?
16:07in 1963-64,
16:10They made the pilgrim images
16:11of the Virgin of the Oak
16:12and they went from house to house.
16:14But really
16:15This is the image
16:17with which
16:18the first
16:19people from Monterrey
16:20They were identified.
16:22There is
16:22novenas
16:24elaborated
16:25since 1700
16:26and a little bit,
16:28TRUE?
16:29To the Virgin of the Oak
16:30in Monterrey,
16:31by the Bishop of Monterrey.
16:32So,
16:33Let's go now
16:33to learn a little more
16:35precisely
16:36of the origin
16:38from the context
16:40in which it occurs
16:41and of the origin
16:42of our Blessed Mother.
16:44Who knows
16:45some magnifying glass
16:46or a lupitus
16:47Who raises their hand?
16:49Very good.
16:50We lowered our hand.
16:51Who knows
16:52some girl
16:53that is called Oak?
16:55There are, aren't there?
16:56Well.
16:58Our Lady of the Oak,
16:59although there are other traditions
17:00where we can
17:01know
17:02in Spain
17:03and company,
17:05It has a lot to do with it
17:06with the foundation
17:07from Monterrey.
17:08And then we're going to do
17:08a journey through our history
17:09because
17:10being so beautiful
17:12the presence
17:13of the Blessed Virgin Mary
17:14in our city
17:15from Monterrey
17:16It is the great unknown
17:17for the new generations.
17:20I'm going to dare
17:20to put it that way.
17:22So,
17:22the first foundation
17:23from Monterrey
17:23It was a bald man
17:25cattle rustler, cow thief
17:27called Alberto del Canto
17:28that in 1577
17:31comes and tries
17:33to found
17:33the village
17:34of Saint Lucia
17:35very close
17:36from the spring
17:37from the spring
17:38that there was.
17:39The obelisk
17:40that is
17:41in Juan Ignacio
17:41Ramón
17:42It's the sign
17:44talking
17:44which is a source
17:45of that obelisk
17:46which is already working
17:48where was
17:49the original spring
17:50of the eyes
17:51of Saint Lucia.
17:52But it fails,
17:54The foundation fails
17:55because
17:56the indigenous people
17:58of the region
17:58which was not
17:59a single tribe
18:00but they were
18:01several tribes
18:02among which
18:03we can mention
18:04and a little while later
18:04we will elaborate
18:05the striped ones
18:06the erased
18:08the crowbars
18:09the striped ones
18:11from Monterrey
18:11They are called striped
18:12because it's the name
18:14of the indigenous tribe
18:15that lived
18:16in Monterrey.
18:17OK?
18:18Let me,
18:18I'll move you
18:19if you like.
18:21The second slide
18:23Luis Carvajal is coming
18:24and from the cave
18:24around 1581
18:26with some permits
18:28special
18:29that right now
18:30we will elaborate
18:30about that
18:31and it is brought
18:32100 families
18:33who were newly
18:34conversations
18:35of Judaism
18:37voluntarily
18:38by force
18:39to Catholicism
18:40of origin
18:42Jew
18:42Sephardic
18:43to evangelize
18:45the area
18:45and found
18:46the village
18:46from St. Louis
18:47King of France
18:48It didn't prosper either
18:49based on that
18:51and
18:52from Saltillo
18:53they were coming
18:53both
18:54first founders
18:56just like
18:56Diego de Montemayor
18:57and keeps insisting
18:59evangelization
19:00through
19:01of the brothers
19:02Franciscans
19:03that they had
19:03a convent
19:04in what is
19:06right now
19:06the circle
19:06trade
19:07from Monterrey
19:08there it was
19:09a convent
19:09Franciscan
19:10and in 1591
19:12Friar Andrew
19:13from León
19:14brings the image
19:15and there
19:16where is
19:16right now
19:17the basilica
19:17of the oak
19:18in Juárez
19:19and May 15
19:20there was a
19:21grove
19:21very big
19:22so
19:23They put it on
19:24in the hollow
19:25from an oak tree
19:26to begin
19:27evangelization
19:28it's coming
19:29the attack
19:30of the indigenous people
19:31and obviously
19:32run
19:33and they abandon
19:34the image
19:34that afterwards
19:35is found
19:36fit here
19:37mention
19:37a couple
19:37of little things
19:38the first
19:39of them
19:39is
19:40the Spaniards
19:41he didn't come
19:42alone
19:43they couldn't
19:45talk
19:45languages
19:46of the people
19:47from here
19:47which were
19:48tribes
19:48semi-nomads
19:49and they brought
19:50indigenous people
19:51Tlaxcalans
19:52as a help
19:54as servants
19:55and as translators
19:57to enter
19:57in communication
19:58with the natives
19:59from the place
20:00that's why
20:01the thing is
20:01many of the
20:02traditions
20:03that we have
20:04here
20:04They have to do
20:06with the origin
20:07Tlaxcalan
20:08of the people
20:09that supported
20:09to the Spanish
20:10so
20:11Friar Andrew
20:11from León
20:12brings
20:13the image
20:14puts it
20:14in the oak
20:15which also
20:16during the
20:17early years
20:18was called
20:18the Virgin of the Walnut Tree
20:19and in the
20:21files
20:21municipal
20:22of 1600
20:23and peak
20:25in 1624
20:26it flees
20:27making donations
20:28for the hermitage
20:30of the Virgin
20:30of the Walnut
20:31now known
20:32as Virgin
20:33of the Oak
20:34but it has
20:35totally related
20:36through this
20:37that the Virgin
20:39It started there
20:40so
20:41obviously
20:42what were they called
20:43to the tribes
20:44from here
20:44Chichimecas
20:45which is a word
20:46Nahuatl
20:46which talks about
20:47They are tribes
20:48dog
20:49a way
20:50derogatory
20:51to speak
20:51of the tribes
20:52from here
20:52because they didn't have
20:54enough
20:54civilization
20:55and constructions
20:56stone
20:57pyramids
20:58and places
20:59like the tribes
21:00like the indigenous people
21:02Mayans
21:03Aztecs
21:03Toltecs
21:04Olmecs
21:04of others
21:06from the center
21:06and south
21:07of the republic
21:08Mexican
21:08that's why
21:10of the tribes
21:11native
21:12obviously
21:14the Spaniards
21:15they found
21:16They were naming them
21:17as they saw them
21:18painted
21:19so
21:20we had
21:20the tribe
21:21of the striped ones
21:22of the crowbars
21:23and of the deleted
21:24What do we have left?
21:26of them?
21:26well, practically
21:27two names
21:28the chipinque
21:30It's a hill
21:32where
21:32an indigenous person
21:34who stole a lot
21:35and he did many
21:36excesses
21:37He would go and hide
21:38towards there
21:38then it became
21:39on the hill
21:40from Chipinque
21:41because that's where he was hiding
21:43the chipinque
21:43who was the indigenous person
21:44or the cannon
21:46from the guajuco
21:46the guajuco
21:47He was another indigenous person
21:49characteristic of the
21:49of the region
21:50what he was doing
21:51true
21:52destruction
21:53between civilization
21:54that there was
21:55that was
21:55trying to establish
21:56And so it is
21:58that Diego de Montemayor
21:59September 20th

22:03villa
22:04of Our Lady
22:06from Monterrey
22:06which is the
22:08the one right now
22:08we celebrate
22:09that's why
22:10the Spaniards
22:11They came to evangelize
22:12these colonizers
22:14Spaniards
22:14They came in two types
22:16I mentioned
22:17in order to be able to
22:19colonize
22:19King Ferdinand
22:21and Queen Elizabeth
22:22the Catholic
22:23they gave permission
22:25nothing else
22:25so that they would benefit
22:27the Spaniards
22:28of
22:29of
22:29deeply rooted
22:31old Spaniards
22:33They called them
22:34meant that
22:35all those
22:36who had been Spaniards
22:37always
22:37they had
22:38priority
22:39to come
22:40to conquer
22:41new lands
22:42in America
22:42and to come and benefit
22:44from the gold mines
22:46and silver
22:46that could have
22:47in the
22:47in civilization
22:48as well
22:50of the lands
22:51in order to be able to sow
22:52and cultivate
22:53It turns out that
22:54the northeastern part
22:55how is
22:55arid and desert
22:57did not allow
22:57nor have mines
22:59nor be able to cultivate
23:00many things
23:01That's why
23:02Luis Carvajal y de la Cueva
23:04ask for permission
23:05to Philip II
23:06King of Spain
23:06and they grant them
23:08Mercedes
23:09what is
23:09a special permit
23:10so that
23:11those
23:12It's not the car
23:14that they manage
23:15of route 129
23:18That's not it.
23:19and then
23:21they grant them
23:22the special permit
23:23so that
23:23those
23:24new converts
23:25to Catholicism
23:27may
23:28to come to these lands
23:29so
23:30How do we distinguish
23:31who was Spanish
23:32and who was
23:33Jew
23:33Sephardic?
23:34the Spaniards
23:35surnames end
23:36in EZ
23:37I don't know
23:38all translations
23:39but
23:39Álvarez
23:40is son
23:41from Álvaro
23:42EZ means
23:43son of
23:44González
23:45son of Gonzalo
23:46Martinez
23:47Martin's son
23:48And off we go.
23:50Rodriguez
23:51son of Rodrigo
23:52but
23:53the Jews
23:54what they said
23:55I am
23:56Roberto
23:56son of Joseph
23:57Jesus
23:59son of Joseph
23:59normally
24:01they asked
24:02that they put
24:02surnames
24:03and then
24:03they started to take
24:04names of nature
24:06of numbers
24:07of animals
24:08in order to be able to
24:10put the last name
24:11so
24:11all the
24:12Heron
24:12Wall
24:13Mades
24:14Rivera
24:15Cow
24:16Bull
24:17and company
24:18Cabeza de Vaca
24:19Villa Real
24:21Villa Gran
24:22Villa Alon
24:23Monte Morelos
24:24Mount Mayor
24:25Build whatever you want
24:26all are
24:28Jews
24:28Sephardic Jews
24:29converted
24:30to Catholicism
24:31And that's because
24:32Queen Elizabeth
24:34says
24:34And the Jews?
24:35How much tax do they pay?
24:37Well, since they're not Spanish
24:38They don't pay taxes
24:39And since they are not Catholic
24:41They do not pay tithes
24:42and then Queen Elizabeth
24:44It gives you two options
24:45one of two
24:46or they leave
24:48without possessions
24:49to another country
24:50and we split it up
24:52everything they gathered
24:53here in Spain
24:54either
24:55They become Spanish
24:56and
24:57They add their last name
24:58That's why many
24:59They arrived here
25:00to evangelize
25:01fleeing a little bit
25:03of the area
25:04which was
25:04the center
25:05of the republic
25:06where was
25:07the inquisition
25:08Friar Andrés de León is coming
25:10Leave the Virgin of the Oak
25:11and it begins to arise
25:13with many tribes
25:15from here
25:15evangelization
25:17little by little
25:18The conversion begins
25:19This is important
25:22we would like to do
25:23a short pause
25:24to provide context
25:25What was happening?
25:26in the 16th century
25:27we're going to
25:28handle in a way
25:30very
25:30very agile
25:31and fast
25:32some characters
25:33typical
25:33of the 16th century
25:34We obviously already mentioned
25:36to Fernando
25:37Isabel
25:37Catholics
25:39have
25:40Henry VIII
25:41of course
25:42that left
25:43to his wife
25:44Ana Catalina
25:45of Aragon
25:46daughter
25:46of the kings
25:47Catholics
25:48to get married
25:49with Anne Boleyn
25:50better known
25:51like Anne the Good
25:52then
25:53Alexander VI
25:55Pope Borgia
25:56who gave them permission
25:56of
25:57stay
25:58with which he conquered
26:00to the kings
26:00Catholics
26:01provided that
26:02were
26:03their mission
26:04evangelize
26:05That's why
26:06the Spanish monarchs
26:07They couldn't move forward
26:09if they weren't with them
26:10Franciscan friars
26:11that might come
26:12to evangelize
26:13We have Christopher Columbus
26:15the navigator
26:16Genoese
26:17Julius II
26:18the one who started
26:19to build the Vatican
26:20the building
26:21of the Basilica
26:22of St. Peter's Vatican
26:23that right now
26:24We all know
26:25Hernán Cortés
26:27between 1519
26:28and 1521
26:2910 years earlier
26:30about the appearance
26:32of the Virgin of Guadalupe
26:33We also have
26:34to Elizabeth I
26:36in 1533
26:371603
26:38in the fight
26:40with the Navy
26:40Invincible
26:42and obviously
26:43the appearance
26:44in 1531
26:45of the Virgin of Guadalupe
26:47on Tepeyac Hill
26:48we move forward
26:50and we realize
26:52about what
26:52It's the time
26:53of Anne Boleyn
26:54of Charles V
26:55fifth emperor
26:57from the sack
26:57Roman empire
26:58Germanic
26:59Cesare Borgia
27:00who was the son
27:01of Pope Borgia
27:02It's the time
27:04also
27:04of Cuauhtémoc
27:05latest
27:06tlatoani
27:07of the Aztec Empire
27:08Philip II
27:10who gave him permission
27:11to Luis Carvajal
27:11to bring 100 families
27:13of origin
27:14Jew
27:14Sephardic
27:15Ignatius of Loyola
27:17that begins
27:18the company
27:18of Jesus
27:19as you can see
27:20It's a century
27:21of many
27:22many personalities
27:23connoted
27:24that marked
27:25the story
27:25we continue with
27:27Mary of Scotland
27:28Martin Luther
27:29Miguel de Cervantes
27:31that at that time
27:32wrote
27:33Don Quixote of La Mancha
27:35of course
27:35Niccolò Machiavelli
27:38who spoke
27:39how he acted
27:40Cesare Borgia
27:41Nostradamus
27:42Saint Pius V
27:44William Shakespeare
27:45and Thomas More
27:46who lost his life
27:47because he is Catholic
27:48and not allow
27:49that the king
27:50Henry VIII
27:51I would tell him
27:52how I had
27:53to live their faith
27:54At that time
27:56It also begins
27:57to evangelize
27:58The Virgin
27:59that we have
28:00It's an image
28:01made by indigenous people
28:02Tlaxcalans
28:03here in Mexico
28:04It is not brought
28:05from Spain
28:06but it is
28:07the image
28:08religious
28:09oldest
28:10throughout the state
28:12from Nuevo León
28:12and after it
28:14Christ
28:16of inspiration
28:18that has
28:18the Villa de Guadalupe
28:19in Guadalupe
28:21Nuevo León
28:21So
28:22It's an image
28:23very beautiful
28:24valuable
28:25422 years old
28:27He tells us
28:29what was the appearance
28:30It turns out to be
28:31that a shepherdess
28:32that was
28:33from more or less
28:34the current cathedral
28:36heading to Saltillo
28:37through the Royal Town
28:39the Royal Road
28:40from Monterrey
28:42what is
28:43the current
28:43Father Mier
28:44they fall apart
28:45the little goats
28:46and they're coming
28:47towards the grove
28:48which is where it is
28:49right now practically
28:50between Juan Ignacio Ramón
28:51and May 15
28:53the Basilica of the Roll
28:54It turns out to be
28:55that while he is there
28:57trying to put them together
28:58Listen to the Virgin
28:59He speaks to her
28:59obviously
29:01It is part of history
29:02part legend
29:04Why don't we have
29:05the conversations
29:06like the Virgin of Guadalupe
29:08with Saint Juan Diego
29:09in writing?
29:11because learning to read
29:12and write
29:13It's something
29:13novel
29:14of the 20th century
29:15then
29:17there was no one
29:18read and write
29:19Antonio Valeriano
29:21who writes
29:22the conversations
29:23of the Virgin of Guadalupe
29:24and obviously
29:25Saint Juan Diego
29:26he writes it
29:27later
29:28to the event
29:30Guadalupe
29:32and he writes it
29:33in Nahuatl
29:33They didn't ask him to.
29:34in Spanish
29:35and then
29:36it translates
29:37to Spanish
29:37so that we
29:38we could
29:39understand
29:39and read
29:40but here
29:41There were no people
29:42that knew how to read
29:42and write
29:43nor the kings
29:45They knew how to read
29:45and write
29:46They had a scribe
29:47which was
29:47They dictated the letters to him.
29:48and they just signed
29:50or they put
29:51his signature
29:52or something that characterized them
29:53so
29:55the Virgin speaks to him
29:56to the shepherdess
29:57and the shepherdess
29:58He doesn't dare touch her
29:59she is amazed
30:01obviously chat
30:02the author
30:02in a very poetic way
30:04that there was a glow
30:05and that the smell
30:06flowers
30:07It was incredible
30:08and the shepherdess
30:09first he tells
30:10to their parents
30:11And then they'll see
30:12to the priest
30:13tell
30:13the Virgin
30:14appeared here
30:15the priest is coming
30:17and in a very solemn manner
30:19take the picture
30:20and he takes her away
30:21the cathedral
30:22here
30:23I would have told them
30:25I would have loved it
30:26I'll take it myself
30:27to my house
30:27But back then
30:30you couldn't have
30:31religious images
30:32at your house
30:32How many of us
30:34We have a Christ
30:35or an image of Mary?
30:36I think everyone
30:36No?
30:37very good
30:38I will all be
30:38at the time
30:40It was not possible to have
30:41because
30:41It could be lent
30:43to witchcraft
30:44which was
30:45knowledge
30:46which was
30:47generalized
30:48and the Inquisition
30:49I had to be
30:50seeing who
30:51Yes, I practiced.
30:51witchcraft
30:52And who wouldn't?
30:52beyond the flask
30:54That was very widespread
30:55TRUE?
30:56Yes, the flask.
30:57And then of course
30:59the shepherdess
31:01He doesn't even touch her.
31:02so
31:04The priest is coming
31:05Take the Virgin
31:06solemnly
31:07Sirius
31:08without science
31:09He takes her to the cathedral.
31:11and at night
31:12The Virgin disappears
31:13of cathedral
31:14and walks back
31:16Tell the legend
31:17to
31:18the robbery
31:20in such a way
31:22they show it
31:23even the little dress
31:24It was wet
31:24and it was full of thistles
31:26or burdocks
31:27the dress
31:27comes back
31:29the priest
31:30He takes her away again
31:30thrice
31:31The Virgin Mary returns
31:32to the oak
31:32until the priest
31:33says
31:34I think the Virgin
31:35He wants to stay here
31:37TRUE?
31:39They're going to ask me
31:40you
31:40father
31:41How true
31:41will all this be
31:42What are you talking about?
31:44Well, I do believe it.
31:45that the Virgin
31:45you can return
31:46to be where she wants
31:47point one
31:48point two
31:49preserving Teresa de Mier
31:51that
31:52Father Mier
31:54on the street
31:55that we have
31:56write in a
31:57from his letters
31:58that her mom
32:00I knew
32:01to the shepherdess
32:03who continued to take care
32:04the oak
32:04because they wouldn't allow it
32:05to have the image
32:06to one side
32:08of the chapel
32:09that had been built
32:10and that he himself
32:11he got involved
32:12to the hollow
32:13into the gap
32:14of the oak
32:15to see if there was room
32:16the image
32:17of the Blessed Virgin Mary
32:18so
32:20There is a testimony
32:21which is extra
32:23of the legend
32:23talking
32:24that it existed
32:25the oak
32:25and that it existed
32:26the shepherdess
32:27and that it existed
32:29the image
32:30that we currently have
32:31I would love that
32:33no more than I don't believe
32:33that they give me permission
32:34the bishop
32:35grab a splinter
32:36of the oak
32:37because I want them to know
32:37I still have it
32:38there in the basilica
32:41TRUE?
32:42the original oak
32:42the original oak
32:43of course
32:44the original little dress
32:46that the Virgin brought
32:47still exists
32:48It belongs to a family
32:49here from Monterrey
32:50that during the pursuit
32:52nun took care of him
32:53and then
32:54of course
32:55that begins
32:57devotion
32:57to the Virgin of the Oak
32:58Let me too
33:00I try to give them
33:01a reference
33:02in 1970
33:0320th century
33:051970
33:06there was
33:08six
33:09parishes
33:10in Monterrey
33:10and
33:12one of the
33:13temples
33:14basilicas
33:16further
33:17full of people
33:18of devotion
33:19and nearby
33:20was
33:20the basilica
33:22of the oak
33:22That's why
33:24the Virgin
33:25People visited her
33:27and to her daughters
33:28They planted oak trees in it.
33:28because
33:29because it was so
33:30so important
33:32the Virgin
33:33that marked
33:34our entire history
33:35of evangelization
33:36This is
33:37the Virgin of the Oak
33:39current
33:39the one on the left
33:40the dress is new
33:41It's from this year.
33:42We had it made.
33:43It cost us a fortune
33:45for that dress
33:46wedding
33:46and of people
33:49of Saint Peter
33:50don't believe
33:50That's cheap.
33:51and then
33:53but it is
33:54an image
33:55identical
33:56to the Virgin
33:57from Zapopan
33:58or of Saint John
33:59of the Lakes
33:59with its particularities
34:01someone was telling me
34:03father is that
34:04There she is, all combed up.
34:05the Virgin of the Oak
34:06and the Virgin of the Oak
34:07She had shaggy hair.
34:08forgive me
34:10sorry
34:10that the parents
34:12previous
34:13they haven't managed to get him
34:13stylist
34:14It's not your fault
34:14of the Virgin
34:15There are levels
34:18TRUE?
34:19There are levels
34:20This is the
34:21origin
34:22Tlaxcalan
34:23of course
34:24the three virgins
34:25They are from
34:26origin
34:26Tlaxcalan
34:27so
34:28the little face
34:28and the little hands
34:29They are made
34:30of a paste
34:30of corn
34:32and bulbs
34:32that still
34:34it is preserved
34:35and it is
34:36a body
34:36more or less
34:37wire rod
34:38sustained
34:38wearing a little dress
34:40which is a fund
34:41we went in
34:43to
34:43the drawers
34:45of the dresses
34:46of the Virgin
34:46and we came to find
34:47clothes
34:48of 1750
34:49with apps
34:51silver
34:52and gold
34:52and of gold thread
34:53and that's it
34:54to give a reference
34:55is prior
34:56to independence
34:58from Mexico
34:58We agree
34:59It is colonial Mexico
35:00still Father Hidalgo
35:02it didn't reach here
35:03to the planet
35:04and the Virgin
35:05I already had
35:05special dresses
35:08And there are those who tell me
35:09father
35:09you can't dress her
35:10with the ample cloak
35:11because the Virgin of the Oak
35:12almost always
35:13It's a triangle
35:14a little bit more
35:15stretched out
35:16TRUE
35:17the truth is that
35:18the Virgin
35:18has worn skirts
35:20blouses
35:21funds

39:03so pretty
39:05and so big
39:06like anyone else
39:07Among the best
39:07European
39:08it's worth it
39:09give it a little spin
39:10and ask the Virgin
39:11of the oak
39:11that intercede
39:12for us
39:13she in a way
39:14special
39:15it was desired

39:17to listen to us
39:18in person
39:19our concerns

39:22evangelization was possible
39:23Nuevo León
39:24and we continue
39:25with evangelization
39:26from Monterrey
39:26and of the temple
39:28talking about
39:31because
39:31right now
39:32we have a temple
39:34of marbles
39:35because the first temple
39:37He built it
39:38Father Manuel Martinez
39:39in 1880
39:41more or less
39:42And this is the third temple
39:44sorry
39:45the first
39:46and the second
39:46They were a little shack
39:48made of adobe
39:48and then
39:50in 1880
39:51it is proposed
39:52Father Manuel Martinez
39:53together with Mr.
39:54archbishop
39:54create a temple
39:56worthy
39:57of the Virgin of the Oak
39:58but when
39:59They finished the dome
40:00fell
40:01October 24
40:03of 1905
40:05The dome collapsed
40:06about the Virgin
40:08of the oak
40:08and we had thought
40:10that had
40:11lost the image
40:12of the oak
40:13but not
40:14Blessed be God
40:15October 24
40:17It's a celebration
40:18of Saint Raphael the Archangel
40:19and we thought
40:20through her intercession
40:22he protected
40:23the image
40:23of the 16th century
40:25invaluable
40:26that we have
40:26and that he is with us
40:28and today
40:29the basilica can be seen
40:30as follows
40:31a basilica
40:33imposing
40:34Let's talk about two
40:35or three little things

40:38from the front
40:39of the basilica
40:40He comes from Italy
40:40of Venice

40:43where is
40:43below
40:45of the eight columns
40:46in front of the eight
40:47white columns
40:48in the portico
40:48of the church
40:49She comes from Venice
40:50the tower
40:51It is the highest
40:52from the entire republic
40:54Mexican
40:5475 meters
40:56around there
40:58I'm watching
40:59what do we call it
40:59elevator
41:00to be able to see
41:01because she looks gorgeous
41:02the city
41:02from above
41:03Both stadiums are visible
41:05companies are visible
41:06characteristics
41:07of our city
41:08the mountains
41:10in the end
41:11and we have
41:12one of the five
41:13larger bells
41:14from the entire republic
41:15Mexican
41:16the bell is called
41:17Vox Matriz
41:19which is the voice
41:19of the mother
41:20that convenes
41:21and wanted to convene
41:22to all the people
41:23of the archdiocese
41:25from Monterrey
41:25at the feet
41:26of the patron saint
41:28when he was crowned
41:29pontifically
41:30to the Virgin of the Oak
41:32as patron
41:32from Monterrey
41:33May 31
41:34of 1963
41:36and ever since
41:38we celebrate
41:39your party
41:40and its invocation
41:41both the coronation
41:42of the Virgin of the Oak
41:43like the party
41:44of the Virgin of the Oak
41:45December 18
41:47hey
41:47Sorry to interrupt
41:49but it would be
41:50Worth commenting on
41:51say
41:52the size
41:53of the basilica
41:54and the materials
41:55that were used
41:56and the little time
41:57in which it was built
41:58normally
42:00a basilica
42:00how are you
42:02It's in Rome
42:02if you study them
42:03it took
42:0480
42:05100 years
42:06in being built
42:07and in 10 years
42:09in 10 years
42:10of '53
42:11to 63
42:11It was built
42:12the basilica
42:13just as the
42:13we know currently
42:15that we are giving
42:16speaking of devotion
42:17that people
42:18had
42:18all the love
42:19all devotion
42:20and all the resources
42:21I
42:22suddenly
42:22I tell Father Hector
42:23Imagine that we were commissioned
42:25to build a basilica
42:25like that
42:26How much would it cost?
42:28Don't even imagine it
42:29little hand
42:30I give up
42:32from now on
42:32I give up
42:33There are millions.
42:35and millions
42:35and millions
42:36of pesos
42:37so
42:38I recommend
42:40that we go
42:41to give it a spin
42:42to the basilica
42:42of the Oak
42:43I recommend
42:45that we have
42:46obviously
42:47since 1760
42:49they began to see
42:51the brotherhoods
42:51of the Virgin of the Oak
42:52trying to do
42:54a bit
42:55the imitation
42:56of the brotherhoods
42:57that there is in Spain
42:58in 1856
43:00is promoted
43:01the construction
43:02of the new temple
43:03and begins
43:04in 1888
43:05and in
43:06the first ninth
43:07which still
43:08have
43:09this
43:09record
43:10made by Mr.
43:12bishop
43:12It was in 1788
43:14and the coronation
43:15in
43:16sorry
43:17in '64
43:18was
43:18the coronation
43:19at the peak
43:20of the Marian year
43:21of '63
43:22to 64
43:23with the
43:24basilica
43:25in full
43:25it is put
43:26a crown
43:26exquisite
43:28jewelry
43:29and materials
43:30so
43:31I hope they can
43:32accompany a day
43:33And let's go with the Virgin of the Oak
43:35to pray to him
43:36and to ask him
43:36her intercession
43:37we always have
43:38the phrase
43:40Virgin of the Oak
43:41cover us with your mantle
43:43protect us
43:44TRUE
43:44shelter us with your mantle
43:46so
43:47when they can
43:48we ask
43:49there in his
43:50in her rosary
43:51also
43:51They prayed it
43:53of course
43:53invoking the Virgin of the Oak
43:55and that they can
43:55take a stroll
43:56there in the center
43:58We have parking.
43:59on one side
44:00around there
44:01warriors
44:01You can enter
44:02to the parking lot
44:03that's it
44:03by schedule
44:04if you also want to give
44:05spiritual exercises
44:08and all
44:08Well
44:11Thank you very much
44:13to Father Roberto
44:13What a conversation!
44:14So delicious!
44:15the story
44:15TRUE
44:16and only because
44:17I hurried him along.
44:18If not, we'll continue here.
44:18all morning
44:20TRUE
44:20but
44:21I consider
44:23which is very important
44:25that we know
44:25our own history
44:27because, as they say
44:28we are
44:29we know more
44:30the story
44:31of other devotions
44:32no
44:34are identified
44:35with our
44:36town
44:37They haven't grown
44:39with our people
44:40And the truth is that
44:41like the Virgin of the Oak
44:42There is no other.
44:43that is closest
44:44to development
44:45of the town
44:47from Monterrey
44:48at first
44:50I wanted to mention
44:51all this context
44:52theological
44:53so that we would understand
44:54that the Blessed Virgin Mary
44:56in our case
44:57Our Lady of the Oak
44:58always accompanied
45:00of the Virgin of Guadalupe
45:01that will accompany
45:02to all the Mexican people
45:03TRUE
45:04will be
45:05the images
45:06with which we
45:07we would have to
45:08identify ourselves more
45:09I insist again
45:11Lourdes
45:13Fatima
45:14the Immaculate Conception
45:16whichever one you want
45:17They are all the same
45:19nothing more than
45:20those were revealed
45:22so that the people
45:23Portuguese
45:24I understood her
45:25or so that
45:25the French people
45:27I would understand.
45:28and these were revealed
45:30so that we
45:32they understood
45:32probably
45:34we would be missing
45:35also delve
45:36more at
45:36in this devotion
45:38in transmitting
45:39these devotions
45:39and in promoting
45:40these devotions
45:41which are properly
45:43the way
45:43in which our
45:44Most Holy Mother
45:45wanted to become
45:46or manifest
45:47present among us
45:49all evangelization
45:51in their parishes
45:52all evangelization
45:53in their families
45:54all evangelization
45:56where
45:57what you
45:57they want to carry it out
45:58if he goes
46:00hand in hand
46:00of Mary
46:01I assure you
46:03which will be
46:04an evangelization
46:05more fruitful
46:06I bet it will
46:08without the presence
46:09of Mary
46:10but
46:11ask them
46:12to Jesus
46:12That's why I brought it.
46:14everywhere
46:14TRUE?
46:15because
46:16one way or another
46:17She never was
46:18the protagonist
46:19the protagonist
46:21of evangelization
46:22It is Jesus
46:23however
46:24your presence
46:26always attentive
46:28always helpful
46:30always intercessor
46:31always protective
46:33is a presence
46:35which helps a lot
46:38to understand
46:38to his son
46:39of the Church
46:40of the Church
46:42Thanks for watching the video!
