How God Prepared The Americas for Conversion Before The Lady Appeared
We were delighted to connect recently with Dr. Mary Miller, director of the Getty Research Institute, after the Mesoamerican conference at Cal State LA, where so many rich insights were shared. In a follow-up note, we shared our book, Guadalupe and the Flower World Prophecy, which explores the anthropological roots of Flower World which led to the massive conversions through Our Lady of Guadalupe.
To our surprise and deep gratitude, we received word that the Getty Research Institute Library has officially acquisitioned our book into their collection.
For two artists who stumbled into this research out of a hunger to understand Guadalupe more deeply, this is a humbling affirmation. We’re thankful to the Getty, to Professor Miller, and to all those helping preserve and explore the cultural and spiritual history of the Americas.

We are especially grateful to Kristin Kennedy, who first heard about our work during a pilgrimage to Mexico and helped make these events possible. Her generosity and conviction opened doors that allowed us to reach both English- and Spanish-speaking communities with a message that has become our life’s work.
With our wonderful host, Kris Kennedy
At the heart of our talks was this question: Could God have prepared the indigenous people of Mexico for the coming of the Gospel long before 1531? We believe the answer is yes. Through Mesoamerican song, poetry, and culture, we find traces of a divine preparation culminating in the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe. As we shared with audiences, this is not a story of manipulation, but of mercy—a bridge built over centuries, leading to Christ.

We were moved by the thoughtful questions, heartfelt conversations, and the warm reception from everyone we met. Thank you, Rhode Island, for welcoming us so graciously. May Our Lady of Guadalupe continue to guide us all closer to her Son.
