Dear Guadalupanas and Peregrinos

I would like to encourage all local groups of the “Pilgrimages for Vocations” to pray a memorial rosary for the soul of Archbishop Robert Sanchez. The rosary can be prayed the next time your group meets or take the opportunity to call all members together for this prayer. We will offer our two closing masses for the Mothers Day pilgrimage and the June pilgrimage for the soul of Archbishop Sanchez. Without the support of our brother and friend Archbishop Sanchez at the beginning and early growth of the pilgrimages, we would not have them today. For those old enough to remember it was not uncommon to have Archbishop Sanchez, unexpectedly drive up during the pilgrimage and walk with us. 
Que Viva!
Archbishop Sanchez, may he rest in peace.

Blessings
Fr. Edmund Savilla
Overall Spiritual Director
