Funds for a Research Project

Guadalupe Ortiz de Landázuri was declared Venerable by Pope Francis on 4 May 2017. A recent favor obtained through her intercession.

I want to make known a favor obtained through the intercession of Venerable Guadalupe Ortiz de Landázuri, because I think it will encourage other people to seek her help.

I work as a pharmacist and part of my work involves research. Although I have worked on a number of research projects in the past, especially when obtaining my doctorate, I had never managed to head an important project, since the funding required was not easy to come by.

About a year ago I began considering a research project to find a solution for a serious health problem in a poor neighborhood without many economic resources. I spoke with several colleagues and contacted a prestigious hospital well known for the high level of its research.

Since Guadalupe Ortiz de Landázuri was a chemist and carried out research, I began going to her intercession for help to find the required funds for this project. I prayed her prayer card and asked friends to do so, since we had already brought up the possibility of the project in a group meeting and so far nothing had come of it.

Six months after suggesting it, the list of the projects approved for funding was published, with ours appearing there. This happened on December 12, feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. I saw this as more than a coincidence.

I have no doubt that it was a big favor from Guadalupe. I continue going to her intercession, asking for help to carry out the research work well and find a way to improve the health situation of the population we are studying. Thank you.
