Sangolquí Adorns Streets with Vibrant Carpets for Corpus Christi 2025 Celebration

SANGOLQUÍ, Ecuador – The streets of Sangolquí transformed into a vibrant canvas on June 24, 2025, as the community celebrated Corpus Christi with its traditional elaborate flower and grain carpets. Hundreds of residents, from children to seniors, collaborated in the meticulous creation of these ephemeral artworks, adorning the main thoroughfares with intricate religious designs and symbols. The day's festivities culminated in a solemn procession, where priests carried the Eucharist, a central element of the Catholic faith, through the beautifully carpeted streets. A large congregation followed, participating in the revered tradition. Participants shared their profound reflections on the significance of the celebration. One woman expressed that the Body of Christ represents "hope," while another stated it embodies "love." A man highlighted "salvation" as its meaning, and another emphasized "health." The collective sentiment underscored the deep spiritual and communal importance of Corpus Christi in Sangolquí.
