Iglesia del Cristo del Consuelo, Catholic church in southwest Guayaquil, Ecuador.
The church building features marble floors, crystal chandeliers, and stained glass windows across its 150 square meters interior space.
The structure evolved from a small bamboo shrine built by Claretian missionaries in the 1960s to its current form as a major religious center.
The Good Friday procession from the church attracts 500,000 pilgrims annually, making it one of the largest religious gatherings in Ecuador.
The church sits at coordinates 2°13′08″S 79°54′24″W and belongs to the Archdiocese of Guayaquil, operating under secular clergy.
The procession route extends through 27 blocks from Lizardo Garcia Street to Cisne 2 sector, led by a carriage carrying the Christ figure.
