The Guadalupan story known as Nican Mopohua narrates that after the first appearance, the Virgin ordered Juan Diego to appear before the first bishop of Mexico, Juan de Zumárraga. Juan Diego in the last appearance of the Virgin, and by order of this, took in his ayate some flowers that cut in the Tepeyac. Juan Diego deployed his ayate before Bishop Juan de Zumárraga, revealing the image of the Virgin Mary, dark and with mestizo features. https://tripsteem-en.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/origin/QmVRLbCBhhY2ZUMbHywG-1546547928345.jpeg What a beautiful monument as the Virgin and his followers, parishioners in this beautiful hill with a slightly hot climate.

The most important source that relates them was the same Juan Diego who would have told all that had happened. Later this oral tradition was collected in a writing with Nahuatl sound but with Latin characters (a technique that no Spaniard knew how to do and only very rarely did the Indians use); This writing is called the Nican Mopohua, and is attributed to the indigenous Antonio Valeriano (1522-1605). Later, in 1648, the book Image of the Virgin Mary, Mother of God of Guadalupe, was published by the presbyter Miguel Sánchez, contributing to compile all that was known at the time about Guadalupan devotion. https://tripsteem-en.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/origin/QmZKZLqQd1PKR8JjafeJ-1546548013404.jpeg Here live Mexico bastards and our Virgin of Guadalupe, many wishes fulfilled for many years.

[7] The original devotional roots of this image are in the Virgin of Guadalupe (Spain), because Christopher Columbus baptized an island with this name in 1493 [8] since, since the century XVI, spread throughout Latin America the devotion to a diverse representation of the Virgin of Guadalupe made in Mexico.

Thus the first stone was placed on January 7, 1777. For its construction and the construction of the "cuadrillas", Huentitán quarry was used. Later, on December 3, 1779, the Bishop Mayor gave a fund of forty thousand pesos to be built 19 houses more, everything that was necessary for the religious service and the houses for the priest, the ministers, the chaplain and the sacristan. https://tripsteem-en.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/origin/QmWUZpztPzUZqBttcK32-1546548341150.jpeg On January 7, 1781, four years after the laying of the first stone, the temple was blessed by the mayor and the first Mass was celebrated by Fray Rodrigo Alonso.
