The famous actor Eduardo Verastegui is inviting Catholics to attend the Guadalupe Festival on Saturday, August 8, at the Jobing.com Arena in Glendale, Arizona.
The festival is being sponsored by the Knights of Columbus and is the first of its kind. In addition to the Knights, the Diocese of Phoenix, the Archdiocese of Mexico City and the Institute for Guadalupe Studies are co-sponsoring the event. Festival goers will be able to enjoy music, dance and prayer that is all dedicated to celebrating the importance of Our Lady of Guadalupe for all of America.
In addition to Verastegui, who is known for his pro-life movie "Bella," the event will also be attended by author Immaculee Ilibagiza, the Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus, Carl Anderson, and Bishop Thomas Olmsted of Phoenix.
