Lights for El Esfuerzo

June 3, 2017 //  by michael.shead

The sun hadn’t risen yet when I left Chichicastenango at 4:20 a.m. to head for the Pacific Coast and the small village of El Esfuerzo — Spanish for “The Effort.” This was a village where about 65 families were putting their effort into scratching out a living on a mountainside in the Guatemalan jungle without …
