Querétaro pilgrimage ends; 80k arrive at Guadalupe

Entities: Diocese of Querétaro · Fidencio López Plaza · Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe · State of Querétaro · Daniel Víctor Villalobos Ortiz

Overview

The 136th Querétaro pilgrimage, organized by the Diocese of Querétaro and overseen by State Civil‑Protection, concluded on 26 July with more than 68,500 participants—including women, men and cyclists—reaching the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City without incidents. Governor Mauricio Kuri González deployed a preventive device that involved over 70 security, health and inspection agencies across Querétaro, the State of Mexico, Hidalgo and the capital. Medical services recorded 3,702 minor‑incident consultations, distributed 37,252 oral‑rehydration sachets, 46 bottles of colloidal‑silver water sanitizer and 349 L of hand‑gel. Health‑promotion activities comprised 388 informational sessions for 24,486 people and 874 talks for 3,379 food‑service workers; sanitation inspections covered 442 toilets and 666 kg of lime were delivered to improve hygiene at temporary sites. Bishop Fidencio López Plaza highlighted the journey as a chance for spiritual renewal and communal solidarity.

Later reports indicated that over 80,000 faithful ultimately arrived at the basilica, confirming coordination among five state governments and about 70 institutions—the largest inter‑institutional effort recorded for the tradition. Minor health issues such as stomach infections and flu were noted, but no serious cases occurred. A delegation from the Diocese of Cúcuta, Colombia, led by Bishop José Libardo Garcés Monsalve, participated in a Mass at the basilica and visited the Mexico City Metropolitan Cathedral and the parish of San José in Puebla, strengthening pastoral ties between the two countries.
