Religion in Chili Delicate worshipers crawl to cross on Good Friday
In Chile devotion reaches extreme acts during Holy Week with women and some men kneeling and crawling over rough stones to kiss the crucified foot. Public mourning continues as carts run and shops open, then a torchlit procession and life size religious images accompany a dramatic display. Judas is publicly punished and vows lead to white garments for years. A mix of hunger for mercy and ritual spectacle marks the observances as ships, forts, and bells join in celebrating Christ is risen.
