The Day of the Dead

November 2nd is the Day of the Dead. It's a day where the great majority of people visit the graves of family and friends. They clean up the graves and decorate them with flowers. The cementeries were full of people and the atmosphere was rather upbeat, not solemne as you might expect. We did evangelism in the morning in one cementery and then in the afternoon in another. Here are the photos so you can see what it's like.

  1. Wow! That is so much different than the way it's celebrated here and in Mexico. Praise the Lord for all the opportunities to witness and for Salvation!!
