Marian devotion
Chiquinquirá and Colombian children
Colombia
Colombian children know Chiquinquirá before they can read.
Place: Colombia
Type: Apparition / Advocation
In Colombia, children learn to sing to the Virgin before they can read. The image of Chiquinquirá is in schools, in houses, in buses.
The children take flowers to the basilica on July 9. The most beautiful flowers are the ones they have grown in their courtyards.
The grandparents tell them the story of Mary Ramos and how the Virgin renewed the canvas. And the children listen with open eyes.
The children are the ones who best understand Chiquinquirá's message.
