Description
-
The devotional traditions associated with the Virgin of Guadalupe are in practice throughout the year among Catholics who identify strongly with her as a source of inspiration, identity and guidance. Home altars, yard shrines and special chapels in neighborhoods and parishes are dedicated to her and tended year round. However, as the feast day approaches, individuals, families and church communities make special preparations, refresh their offerings to her and engage in forms of re-consecration that may include a blessing, a dance, a prayer session, a performance of banda or mariachi music or all of them together.
