Lavatorio de pies en Matatán, representado por jóvenes de la comunidad de Malpica.

On Jueves Santo, in the community of Matatán, municipality of El Rosario, the reenactment of the Lavatorio de Pies takes place, one of the most significant acts of Holy Week. In this tradition, young people from the neighboring community of Malpica participate, recreating Jesus' gesture of humility towards his disciples.

The celebration combines religious solemnity with a strong community sense, reinforcing the bonds of faith and brotherhood between both localities. This event is one of the most anticipated moments of Holy Week in Matatán, attracting both local faithful and visitors seeking to experience up close the mountain customs of Sinaloa.

The Lavatorio de Pies is a rite performed on Jueves Santo during the celebration of the Cena del Señor, commemorating the moment when Jesus washed his disciples' feet as an act of love, humility, and service. In practice, a priest washes the feet of twelve members of the community, who are usually children, adults, or the elderly, symbolizing service to others and the Christian vocation of service. Although the text mentions young people from Malpica performing this reenactment, this act of service can be represented by people of different ages and conditions within the religious community.
