Procession Of The Christ Of Forgiveness In Lorca - Spain

Musicians during the procession of the 'Cristo del Perdón', on March 28, 2024, in Lorca, Region of Murcia, Spain. The procession is presided over by the Brotherhood of Nuestro Señor Jesús Nazareno el Cristo del Perdón. It is the third procession that runs along the main street and has the presence of a large number of biblical-historical groups both on foot and on horseback or in chariots to dramatize the domination that the great empires of Antiquity (Rome, Egypt, Persia) exercised over Israel in the Holy Land. The image of the Christ of Mercy joins the Via Crucis at midnight to return to its Central Hermitage on Mount Calvary. Photo by Edu Botella/Europa Press/ABACAPRESS.COM
