On Tuesday, February 5th, Our Lady of Czestochowa in Her pilgrimage across the world in defense of life arrived in the biggest city of Andalusia – Seville. First there was a short stop at a school run by the Salesian Order, to prepare for the solemn entrance to the center of the city.
Dear Friends!
On Monday, February 4, having said farewell to Jerez de la Frontera and all Andalusia, the Black Madonna visited the town of Mairena del Alcor, in the province of Seville. It is here where the strongest and most active pro life group in the whole of Spain has their headquarters. They were the hosts of the meeting in their town.
In the evening on Saturday, February 2, the next group of pro-lifers, this time from the dicese of Berez de la Frontera, took over the care of the Icon of Our Lady of Częstochowa. At 5 PM they reached the capital of the diocese Jerez de la Frontera, the town in the south-west of Andalusia. This city, with 200 thousand inhabitants, is particularly famous for sherry production.
In the afternoon on Friday, February 1, Spanish pro-lifers from the Diocese of Cadiz carried the Częstochowa Icon onto a ship to cross the Gibraltar Strait and reach Spanish Ceuta. The journey lasted one hour.
