A shrine and altar to Our Lady of Guadalupe is located on the grounds of the St. William of York Catholic Church in Stafford, VA. There is a circular concrete plaza with a semi-circular stone wall of which an alcove with a statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe is the focal point. Flowers and lit candles are placed at the base. Plaques installed in the wall on either side of the shrine give the history of Our Lady, one in English and one in Spanish. Nearby is a lectern and there are two stone benches on the outer edge. Not far from the plaza, there is a stone font that sits upon a raised platform.
The shrine is available to the public daily and there is ample parking. Parking may be limited during Sunday services or other scheduled events at the church. Our Lady of Guadalupe receives several visitors each day who pay her homage.
