The young man picutured here is an engineer. His future was already on track, but what happened at this Jubilee turned his life around 180 degrees. He has now decided to enter the seminary.
CHUY MARTÍNEZ
Pilgrim from Guadalajara (Mexico)
It’s something that has always been in my heart, but through this trip, through this pilgrimage, the Lord has definitely called me, and I know I have to leave everything. I’m currently an engineer and already have a professional career. However, I’m going to leave it all behind and go serve Him full time.
Even though it was something he had been thinking about for a while, it was in this moment that he truly realized it.

Pilgrim from Guadalajara (Mexico)
The exact moment when I said, “I have to leave everything and fully consecrate myself to God,” was precisely when I passed through the Holy Door at St. John Lateran. It was truly an incredible opportunity—it was a fire that ignited in my heart, and I said, “I’m going to do it.”
Now, this young man returns to Mexico with a clear purpose: to dedicate his life to God.
