New Year's Sanctuary
Every year, hundreds of believers visit a Sanctuary located in Chalma, a place with an old history, full of tradition and people full of faith and hope. You begin in a huge Ahuehuete, where small springs of cold and crystalline water is born, there people wash their heads and fill containers for this water is believed to be blessed.
Yards forward, you find the Church of the Lord of Chalma, a place where hundreds of people pray, leave offerings, make promises, and, with all their faith and heart, thank for all the things they have. A very special place for me, every year I visit it and give thanks for every single thing I went through and ask for three things: good health, great learnings, and nurturing love from my family and friends.
