The Eucharist, which will be broadcast live on EWTN Spain, will take place in the Cristo de la Victoria parish in Madrid at 8:00 p.m. local time, after which the Blessed Sacrament will be exposed.
During the moment of worship, “prayers will be raised for the peace and prosperity of Spain,” having in the Virgin of Pilar “a symbol of unity and strength” and the desire for “a united and prosperous future for all.”
“In times of challenges, EWTN Spain invites all the faithful to participate, regardless of their location, in this powerful manifestation of faith and hope,” the statement states, understanding that “this day is not only a celebration of our cultural roots, but an opportunity to unite hearts in prayer for the well-being and unity of our nation.”
