Clergy about Guadalupe

Please excuse me not accurate translation from polish.

31th. May 2000- consideration before Regina Celi prayer, when the Holy Father told:

"In this moment I am going back in my heart on the Tepeyac Hill. Looking on the fabric of mantle, onto Mother of God left her Image, honored by all american nations, I please Her to surround Church with Her maternal protection. Once again greeting hearty all mexican pilgrims, I encourage you to always have before eyes an example of new saints. Let their intercession make Mexico still "always faithful", and to have on this land always Christians on the degree of saints today cannonized and other great sons of the Church in your country."
Those words were spoken during the canonisation of mexican martyrs in Rome, 21th of May 2000. Holy Father says then:
"For Thee, a Star of Evangelisation of the american continent, we entrust one of the main purpose of the Great Youbilee, that has to awake in every faithful a real longing after the holiness."

"500 years ago God Father began a dialog with us, people of Latin America. It is a dialog of love, and it lasts and is still actual and we share it with all the nations of the world. This is the gospel of Guadalupe, which we want to give to the world, gospel fully correct to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which touches the integrity of human life. And we share this experience also with Poles from Pisz, who live in parish uder the call of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Those people, accordingly to the protection of Our Lady, are making efforts to create a social center directly to the teaching of what God gave us by the mediation of Virgin of Guadalupe. I think this idea will rejoice a heart of the Holy Father. We the Mexicans, who Pope loves very much, would like to say, that Pope is Mexican for us also. I remember His first visit in 1979. and His first appearing on 26. January the same year. Pope said about Mexico something similar what He use to say about his own fatherland, Poland: "Mexico always faithful". I think this is very deep and defines very deeply Poland and Mexico. Besides, a faith and binding to the Christ join us, moreover a care of Mother of Mercy of Guadalupe deepen this our brotherhood.
We are preparing for repeated visit of His Holiness the fifth time already. This fills us with joy of happiness, and I feel proud of being the main coordinator of this visit. I am very happy to receive Vicarius of Christ in our modest thresholds of Santa Maria de Guadalupe Sanctuary."(...)
" We are very happy because Pope comes to us as Shepherd and as One, who leads the way, and to support us in faith, to make us very well connected to the faith and Christ, to make us again ready to proclaim Gospel with Him and for Him, a Good News in this special moment in the world, when we very need love and peace. Guadalupana tried to tell us about these values. The presence of John Paul II among us is a challenge to share this event with all the world, that comes from the good news of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
A need of love and peace in our world is still actual, what we can see by the visit of Pope, who comes to us to canonise Juan Diego, who was a witness of the apparitions. If John Paul II after 500. years comes to canonise Juan Diego this should be seen in that way, that Pope says a person of Juan Diego is still actual, not coming out of interest despite the lasting time. These people are needed in every moment of history. Juan Diego is for us a very important person because of his deep faith, modesty, his humble service. These are features, that are not passing away with time. Pope comes to point on him not only because of us, but for all the world. From the moment of his canonisation, Juan Diego becomes an universal figure. Our Lady of Guadalupe is unbreakably connected to Juan Diego and Juan Diego to Our Lady."
