The Pilgrim Icon of Our Lady of Czestochowa traveled by plane from the US to Leon, Guanajuato, accompanied by Fr. James Heyd. Fr. Heyd is a fluent Spanish speaker and he firmly believes that "The Mother of San Juan Pablo II, is the one who has wanted to come to Mexico, as a way of life Ecclesia in America".
The arrival of Our Lady of Czestochowa the "Black Madonna" and the Mother of St. John Paul II in Latin America means that millions of families will come to venerate Mary, Mother of God and all men. She brings to Mexico the message of mercy, courage and commitment to build the civilization of love and life.
At the evening Sunday Mass November 30, at Our Lady of Mercy Parish in Chicago, the faithful gave devotion to Our Lady of Czestochowa before she travels to Mexico to greet Our Lady of Guadalupe.
On Sunday, November 30th, Our Lady of Czestochowa arrived at the church of the Holy Angels in Bronzeville, Chicago. With great enthusiasm and joy, this noteworthy congregation received the holy icon. This place is famous nationwide for the work of Fr. George Clements who years previous spearheaded the building of a new church and developed an excellent school. Now, Fr. Andrew Smith, a former Chicago police officer, is the pastor.
