Abbot Isaac Camacho, O.S.B. begins mass for the feast day of Our Lady of Guadalupe around 5:30am. There is likely no Catholic festival more indicative of cultural roots among Mexican immigrants than Our Lady of Guadalupe.

A mother's day second line rolls through the streets of New Orleans.

Samantha Bernstein, 9, ice skates with a doll at a mall on her day off of school in anticipation of Hurricane Ivan, which did not affect the area. It was the fourth time in a month that kids had a hurricane day. Samantha had been worried about all of the hurricanes.

Zared, 5, left, Paisley, 3, and Paxton Moran, 6, play near their home in Scenic Trails, a FEMA trailer park months after hurricane Katrina destroyed their home in Mississippi. The Moran children called this pile of debris their tree house. There were nine of them altogether, aged 3 to 15, and they lived with their mother in a FEMA trailer with four bunk beds. Before the storm, the family rented a two-story house.

Evan Bell, 9, left, his brother Spencer Bell, 11, and their friend Michael Sarifianos, 11, get doused by a puddle during the rain showers in Tampa. The boys had been playing the 'mud bowl instead of the super bowl', Evan said.

Carolyn Lewis, 17, left, her sister Avenay Myrick, 11, and brother George Jones, 14, peek outside as a police cruiser shines a flood light through their home and every home on Preston Street where they live on April 7, 2009. Just down their street is where Paris Whitehead-Hamilton, 8, was killed early morning April 5, 2009. Paris was in the front room of the home at 771 Preston Ave. S at about 2:20 a.m. on Sunday when she was struck three times in the back as she tried to flee, according to St. Petersburg police. About 50 rounds were fired, police said. Their mother Angela Gwyn says she makes sure the children sleep in the back of the house just in case of drive by shootings like what took place last weekend.

A relative of Armand Louis Charbonnet lays prostrate in the middle of the street as a second line processes down Esplanade Avenue celebrating his life on Monday July 20, 2015. Charbonnet was the vice president of his family's funeral home that has been a mainstay of the Treme community of New Orleans for 132 years. He died July 9 at his Gentilly home. He was 84. The procession traveled to St. Louis Cemetery No. 3, where he was buried.

Jenga Mwendo walks with her daughter Azana Olusola, 3, up to the levee wall at the Industrial canal where it meets the river in the Lower 9th Ward in New Orleans on August 7, 2007. Jenga, 28, moved away from New Orleans after graduating from high school to attend NYU and worked in New York since then. Just before Katrina she bought a house in the Lower 9th Ward but had thought she would rent it out and maybe down the road possibly move down. After the storm she decided to quit her job and dedicate herself to living in New Orleans. She said she wants Azana to experience the music and culture of the place where she grew up.
