Celebra con Nosotros
The Day of the Dead is a popular Mexican celebration. Its origin dates back to the Mesoamerican cultures that inhabited the Mexican territory before the arrival of the Spaniards, such as the Mexican, Maya, Mixtec, Texcocan ethnic groups. Originally, according to the Mixtec calendar, it is celebrated during the ninth month of the solar year, to honor the deceased. It takes place on November 2, although celebrations begin on November 1. The ritual aims to honor the life of the ancestors, the dearly departed. All kinds of offerings are placed on an altar that is raised in their memory as a gift.
The presence of the family dead is celebrated, and that day they return home to be with their relatives and to be nourished and enjoy the offerings that have been dedi- cated to them.
Faith/La Fe is proud to host a Day of the Dead celebration this year on Saturday, November 2, from 5pm-8pm in Parish Hall. There will be an altar and traditional Mexican food and beverages to enjoy. Come and celebrate with us!
