On his part, the Heritage Mayor said, «The discourse about the Christ of Salvation speaks of Lorca, an image that has been a refuge, comfort, and hope for thousands of believers, who look at that window located between the Rzari chapel and Mubbla every day to pray or simply admire it, a unique, delightful sight for both Lorquinos and visitors alike.»
«The ‘Besapés’ that will take place on April 4 to mark the 40th anniversary of its first processed departure will be a significant event, an intimate meeting between Lorquinos and Christ, a moment of prayer, promises, and requests fulfilled with the certainty that He always listens.»

This will be a year full of memories and emotions, and the Brotherhood wants to share it with all who are part of this great family.
