Quinceañera

Among several Spanish-speaking countries and among many Hispanics in the United States there is the custom of celebrating the passage from childhood to adolescence with a ritual that expresses thanksgiving to God for the gift of life and that asks for a blessing from God for the years ahead. This celebration may take place within Mass or outside of Mass.

What is a Quiceañera?

 A quinceañera is a religious cultural experience. It is a ceremony by which a young girl, during her 15th year, renews her baptismal promises and commits her life to God through the Blessed Mother.

The quinceañera is not a sacrament, but it is a sacramental for which a certain time of study and preparation is asked for a girl to celebrate her first 15 years of life.

The quinceañera is not just another excuse to have a party. It is a commitment to God and the community.
