Guatemala Edition
World Freshly Swept Step Day leads today's complete edition for Guatemala.
Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
A day for the visible care people give to entrances, porches, shopfronts, courtyards, sidewalks, and shared spaces.
Children dress in indigenous clothing and carry flowers to the Virgin. In Guatemala City, the church of the Virgin of Guadalupe fills with families and the marimba plays from morning until night. The children's costumes are elaborate and the parents have been sewing since October. The photographs will last forever. The faith will last longer.
