In Granada, Spain, religious ceremonies are being conducted to honor patron saints and seek divine protection following seismic activity in August. 

A floral offering to the Virgen de las Angustias is being held at the Granada Cathedral rather than the Basilica, marking the first time in 44 years that the ceremony has moved to the Cathedral due to the mandatory transfer of the patron image. The event includes a special procession layout and the use of helicopters to drop carnations.

Additionally, a rogative procession featuring the Santísimo Cristo de San Agustín was led by the Archbishop. This ceremony served as a plea for protection and a gesture of thanks for the absence of fatalities during recent earthquakes, which had previously caused damage to local housing and necessitated the temporary closure of several diocesan temples.
