“Every morning I cleaned the steps of the church... not out of faith, but out of respect for tired feet.”

Andrés Toledo, 79, had a cloth, a broom, and a quiet routine.

At dawn, each day, he swept the steps of the neighborhood church.

He wasn’t on staff.

He wasn’t seeking praise.

He wasn’t even religious.

He simply said:

“Some come to church with broken faith, but tired feet.

The least I can do is let them step on something clean.”

He cleared away dust, leaves, and rain-soaked mud.

He worked in silence—always before the doors opened.

One morning, a young man asked:

“Why do you do this if no one asks you to?”

And Andrés replied:

“Because some acts aren’t prayer… but they’re still sacred.”

A street photographer caught him in a single frame—bent over, broom in hand, cleaning before sunrise.

The photo went viral.

Thousands commented:

“Not everyone who protects a temple is inside it.

Some start at the entrance.”

Andrés still shows up every morning.

When someone stops to thank him, he simply smiles and says:

“It’s not for the church.

It’s for the people.”

🙏
