San Xavier Mortuary Chapel in Tucson, Arizona

San Xavier Mortuary Chapel in Tucson, Arizona
Just west of the church is the mortuary chapel, a very small, one room building. Inside, hundreds of candles burn against the far wall. Worshipers leave the candles which represent their mandas (Spanish for "promises" or "vows") and prayers.
