 Dimecres de cendra

Ash Wednesday solemnly inaugurates Lent, marking the beginning of a 40-day spiritual journey. On this day, ashes are imposed on the forehead of the faithful as a sign of penance, a reminder of the transience of life and the need for repentance. The ash has been obtained by burning the palms and branches of the Rams Diumenge from the previous year.

 Viernes de Dolores

It is celebrated on the Friday before Good Friday. On this day, the “seven sorrows” of the Virgin Mary are commemorated, a popular devotion that recalls various episodes of her life that have frequently been captured in art. It is a day to honor pain and compassion, reminding us of the importance of empathy in our own existence so that it inspires us to be more compassionate and supportive of those facing difficulties.

 Sábado de pasión

On Passion Saturday, the tone becomes more intense as we anticipate the transformation that Lent promises. We reflect on the passion of Christ and prepare for the culminating week.
