In her words to Juan Diego, she ensured him of her protection and love as she beautifully expressed, “I wish that a temple be erected here quickly, so I may therein exhibit and give all my love, compassion, help, and protection, because I am your merciful mother, to you, and to all the inhabitants on this land and all the rest who love me, invoke and confide in me; listen there to their lamentations, and remedy all their miseries, afflictions and sorrows.” - Nican Mopohua (words of Our Lady of Guadalupe)
