Religious celebrations held in Gerena and Sagunto
Religious celebrations are underway in several Spanish towns. In Gerena, the Virgen de la Sangre received a canonical coronation led by the Archbishop of Seville, Monsignor José Ángel Saiz Meneses. The event, attended by local authorities and religious figures, was described by the Archbishop as a day of immense joy for the Vera-Cruz Brotherhood and the community.
In Sagunto, festivities have commenced in honor of the town's patron saint, the Virgen del Buen Suceso. The celebrations began with the transfer of the image from the Church of Buen Suceso to the Church of El Salvador to start a novena. The schedule includes various parish visits, an offering on Saturday, and a major procession on Sunday.
