Corpus

Sunday evening we had the parade for Corpus Christi.

Following mass at 8pm, the children came out of the church and lined up around a pattern of flower petals and leaves that someone had carefully prepared in the town square.

Then the parade set off with the junior band taking the lead followed by the various church groups, the children in the communion clothes, town councillors and the main band.

Bringing up the rear were many of the townsfolk carrying lighted candles.

Every year this parade takes place and every year, it is well attended. You see, traditional values and culture form the cornerstones of society in Bigastro.
