Documentary Screening: Our Soldiers, Our Lady of Guadalupe (2022)

A documentary screening at the Vodak branch explores the story of Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church in South Chicago, which lost 12 parishioners in the Vietnam War—more than any other parish in the country. The WTTW film *Chicago Stories: Our Soldiers, Our Lady of Guadalupe* examines how that loss shaped the community and what emerged from a memorial in the church parking lot: a narrative of love, resilience, and memory. The screening takes place Monday, October 12, from 1 to 2 PM, with English subtitles available for deaf and hard-of-hearing viewers.
