New York City, N.Y., Aug 22, 2009 / 06:07 pm (CNA).- A new book on Our Lady of Guadalupe intended to explore her history and her message of love has debuted on major U.S. bestseller lists.

“Our Lady of Guadalupe: Mother of a Civilization of Love” debuted at number six on the August 14, 2009 release of the New York Times bestseller list. It has also appeared on the bestseller list of the Wall Street Journal and Publisher’s Weekly.

The book is authored by Carl Anderson, Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus, and Guadalupe expert Msgr. Eduardo Chávez. It traces her history as a religious and cultural symbol from the sixteenth century to the present.

The Knights of Columbus held their First International Marian Congress on Our Lady of Guadalupe in Phoenix on August 6-8. The festival drew a crowd of 20,000 in what was said to be the largest Catholic celebration of the year in that area.

Carl Anderson is also the author of the bestselling 2008 book “A Civilization of Love.”

Msgr. Chávez was the postulator of Guadalupe visionary St. Juan Diego’s cause for canonization and is one of the most prominent experts on the Guadalupe apparitions. He is the first dean of the Catholic University Lumen Gentium of the Archdiocese of Mexico.

The web site for “Our Lady of Guadalupe: Mother of a Civilization of Love” is at http://www.GuadalupeBook.org

James Faulkner, has made a accusation that I do not agree with. The K of C
DO NOT Support any politician if favor of abortion. It is obvious that he is not a member of the K of C.

In peoples search for Truth in these days of infamy this being a bestseller is a wonderful sign. God bless the authors. The key I believe is to pray often and for OTHERS, and if you pray to Mary you will find a powerful and wonderful intercessor. I espouse on Our Lady of Guadalupe in my book Sons of Thunder.

Please have the K of C come out against the health bill. Also, please wakeup the BISHOPS. We know they value MONEY more than spirituality.

The Knights of Columbus are still backing politicians favoring abortion. K of C, money is not the only issue. Remember Judas.
