We’re happy to announce having celebrated four years of ministry with our Hispanic Community in this beautiful place where God’s grace is richly manifested.

God has blessed us with the presence of a new pastor for the Spanish speaking community of the Shrine. He is Padre Marco Antonio Sánchez, S.T., and with his arrival we are now celebrating Mass every Sunday.

If you are interested in joining our community and would like to serve in one of our liturgical ministries, as a Music Minister, Lector, or Eucharistic Minister, please contact Fr. Marco or Luz Marina Bazalar, Coordinator of Hispanic Ministry at the Shrine. Call us, write us a note, or send us an email. Each Ministry is coordinated by one of our leaders:

Ministry of the Word Adrian Salazar

Ministry of the Eucharist German Barrantes
