According to Christian tradition, Candlemas marks Mary and Joseph's presentation of the baby Jesus in the Temple in Jerusalem. Candlemas is observed 40 days after Christmas, on February 2. Catholics in Mexico celebrate the feast day by dressing their baby Jesus figurines and bringing them to their local church to be blessed. [Photo: AP/Marco Ugarte]
