Comunicado del Arzobispado de Trujillo sobre el proceso de restauración del templo y convento de Guadalupe

The Archdiocese of Trujillo is seeking to cancel a tripartite agreement between the regional government and a financing company regarding the restoration of the Guadalupe temple and convent.

The Archdiocese issued the statement following a review that identified unfixable administrative and technical issues within the project profile, the bidding rules, and the hiring of supervisors. The Archdiocese stated that these issues must be evaluated with transparency and independence to safeguard the legality of the process.

The original agreement involved the Archdiocese, the Dirección Desconcentrada de Cultura, and the Regional Government. The Archdiocese noted that the decision to rescind the agreement with the regional government and the financing company is a pastoral and institutional responsibility intended to protect the historical sanctuary and the integrity of the restoration project.
