SPECIAL PROJECTS
The FDB proposes the development of special project / works. These special projects will promote religious and cultural events that are important to keep in memory. Those projects are directly and indirectly related to the Bible and its Christian tradition.
POBRA DO CARAMIÑAL
NAZARENO AND SHROUD PROCESSION:

We are devoted also to special topics on Spanish traditions based on Christian culture. We try to recover traditions still alive. For example, we are doing research on a Procesión de las Mortajas’ tradition, a procession where people walk behind the sculpture Nazareno carrying his/herself shroud, as a positive sign of understanding death and resurrection. This is a popular tradition in a Galician city called Pobra do Caramiñal. This spiritual and culture manifestation shows a deep sense of life and death. In this tradition birth, life and death are combined through centuries from primitive times in Dolmens of the surroundings of that city to present times in this Mortajas’ procession. Suffering a life in illness and risk are faced with faith, in a long way of hope and charity, with the only intention of the celebration of Life.
