In last month's Corpus Christi procession, Elvia's son Beto was invited by personal invitation to carry the flowered litter, holding the chalice, in the procession. This is a big honor to anyone, and especially for a devout 18 year old young man.
Early in the day, banners are hung throughout the town and altars go up in doorways and arches where the evening procession pauses at each, for an oration.
Here's a short video and photos (to come)
