This event is particularly relevant for our synod as it provides an opportunity to deepen our understanding of Latino religious traditions and their intersections with Lutheran theology. The Virgin of Guadalupe holds profound cultural and spiritual significance for many Latine communities, and this presentation aims to bridge cultural gaps and foster mutual understanding within our diverse faith community.

Rev. Jesus Escamilla will guide us through the historical and contemporary relevance of Guadalupe, helping us appreciate her role and significance from a Latino Lutheran perspective. This is a unique chance to engage with and learn from these perspectives, enriching our collective faith journey.
