Prayer to Blessed Juan Diego
Dear Saint Juan Diego, at Tepeyac Our Lady told you, "I am your mother. Are you not under my protection? Why do you fear, if you are in my mantle, and in my arms?" In your humility, you were 'altogether necessary' in God's plan. Confidently you faced a skeptical Bishop Zumarraga, presenting him with roses which miraculously grew on the hillside. Wondrously, the image of the Virgin appeared on your tilma! Because of your faithfulness, the Gospel of Our Lord spread through Mary's image, and many people came to believe in Him. Your devotion lives on in the people of Mexico, the Americas, and the whole world. O Saint Juan Diego, please pray for me (mention your request). May Our Lady of Guadalupe, Mother of the true God, bring all peoples to Jesus, Her Son. Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.

Prayer to Blessed Juan Diego #2
Blessed Juan, you faced the skepticism and rejection of a bishop and the crowds to bring Mary's message to Mexico. Pray for us that when we are faced with obstacles to our faith we may show that same courage and commitment.  Amen
Prayer to Blessed Juan Diego #3
You who were chosen by Our Lady of Guadalupe as an instrument to show your people and the world that the way of Christianity is one of love, compassion, understanding, values, sacrifices, repentance of our sins, appreciation and respect
for God's creation, and most of all one of humility and obedience. You who we know is now in the Kingdom of the Lord and close to our Mother, be our angel and protect us, stay with us as we struggle in this modern life not knowing most of the
time where to set our priorities. Help us to pray to our God to obtain the gifts of the Holy Spirit and use them for the good of humanity and the good of our Church, through the Heart of Our Lady of Guadalupe to the Heart of Jesus.  Amen
