Description
On Good Friday in New Mexico, there are many pilgrimages to sites around the state. The most famous of these is the pilgrimage to Chimayo, to visit the Santuario de Chimayo and to get some of the blessed dirt from a hole in the chapel floor.
On this particular Good Friday, a woman pilgrim walks towards a crowd with her back turned to the camera, carrying a cross on her shoulder. The words "Dios es amor" are printed on a sticker which she's affixed to her back
