Photo editor Karen Callaway spent the last four years documenting the eve of the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe from groups leaving their parishes and making the pilgrimage to the shrine in Des Plaines and back to their parishes again. This slideshow shows what goes on through the night during a pilgrimage that draws tens of thousands of people each year.
The faithful from several parishes including St. Agnes of Bohemia and Assumption BVM walk down Kedzie Avenue towards Our Lady of Tepeyac Parish on their way to the shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Des Plaines on Dec. 11.
