Ever wondered what happens to your exvotos offered to the Virgen María during the romería? The Universidad Autónoma de Centroamérica (UACA) presents "Por el Camino de la Fe," a journey revealing the sacred path of these faithful offerings. Discover how these cherished symbols are meticulously cared for and preserved, holding the intimate prayers and gratitude of countless pilgrims.
Follow the "Ruta del Exvoto," a spiritual trail starting from your heartfelt intention to the moment these physical symbols are presented to the "Negrita" with prayer. Learn about their week-long vigil near the Piedra del Hallazgo or the altar, culminating in a special presentation during the Sunday "misa al peregrino."
See how the Missionary Clarisas Sisters play a vital role in classifying and conserving these exvotos. Some are beautifully displayed in rotating exhibits, while others are carefully stored, with the hope that some may even accompany the Virgen during special celebrations like the Rosario de la Luz.
The next time you offer an exvoto, you'll know its sacred journey. Rest assured, your heartfelt prayers remain close to the Reina de Los Ángeles. UACA also offers free health services at their center in Curridabad.
