December 28th

I live in a community called "San Felipe Tlalmimilolpan". It is a town south of Toluca, State of Mexico. Every year, on December 28, the day of the innocents is celebrated. In this town we venerate the image of the "Lord of the Prendimiento". Year after year more people from other cities come to the celebration.

People always come out to accompany the image and walk through the streets of the city with their own images of the "Lord of Prendimiento". There are fireworks and music that accompanies the tour. At the end a religious ceremony is celebrated and people usually enjoy fireworks and music. It is a very beautiful tradition and everyone is invited to live it year after year.
