Basilica of Guadalupe Rector Removed Amid Financial Investigation

While more than 10 million pilgrims filled the streets of Tepeyac for the 12 December celebrations honouring Our Lady of Guadalupe, a serious internal crisis has been unfolding at the Basilica in Mexico City.

According to InfoVaticana (15 December), the rector, Canon Efraín Hernández Díaz, has been removed from office and placed under a canonical investigation ordered by the Archdiocese of Mexico. The move followed an unprecedented formal complaint by the Guadalupe chapter to Cardinal Carlos Aguiar Retes.

The canons accuse the rector of opaque financial administration, lack of transparency and accountability, and of bypassing them. The chapter shares legal responsibility for overseeing the sanctuary. According to the canons, these practices endangered both the material assets and the spiritual mission of Mexico’s most important Marian shrine.

In response, Cardinal Aguiar removed the rector on 20 September and ordered a preliminary canonical investigation, opened on 3 October. The Mexican Bishops’ Conference is reportedly considering a full financial audit. The matter has been communicated to Pope Leo XIV, who has instructed that the investigation proceed.

Significantly, on 12 December the Eucharist—normally presided over by the rector—was celebrated instead by the Apostolic Nuncio, Monsignor Joseph Spiteri.

There is no criminal investigation by civil authorities.

Neither Bergoglio nor Prevost appear in the Mantle of the Virgin of Guadalupe.
The 46 stars on the Virgin of Guadalupe's mantle prove that Bergoglio and Prevost are not legitimate Popes These 46 stars on the tilma represent the 46 popes since the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe in 1531. They also correlate with the prophecies of Garabandal, which indicate that the End Times began after Benedict XVI.
"I earnestly desire that a temple be erected for me here."
The temple requested by the Virgin of Guadalupe is not the new modernist "basilica" that has been desecrated with syncretic ecumenical gatherings that violate the First Commandment and contradict the evangelizing message of the Virgin of Guadalupe. This site was also desecrated by the anti-apostolic visit of the false pope Bergoglio.
