“We ask ourselves if these traditions are a part of who we are or something we are against, whether we live with them or around them.”

"presiones de nuestra fe " is tackling the challenges that we younger generations in the U.S. face regarding religion—at a young age, surrounded by religious symbols, texts, traditions, and places. It creates a problematic space for us to navigate our own beliefs in comparison to those of our families. Sometimes even feeling pressured into this faith. We ask ourselves if these traditions are a part of who we are or something we are against, whether we live with them or around them.

Presiones de nuestra fe

"la conexión con nuestra fe" is The connection to our faith, the connection we live with as we grow into the adult world, much different than our homes. Our religion and culture stop leading us in life and instead take the back seat. Although we may forget, we still live side by side with faith. Gifts from family members become our daily protection. When we look in the mirror and see, when we touch our necks and feel. The chains and Cards become bridges to our homes. No matter how far we go. Whether we no longer believe or do. We continue to let faith stay.
