This year's novelty was that the ordeal has passed through the Blue Balcones street, next to the winch.
The next major event of this day has been the traditional offering of an ounce of gold in the Church of Charity, a symbol of municipal financial assistance each year gives the mayor for the sick poor of the Holy and Royal Hospital of Charity, and has been of 32,000 euros.

For its part, the bishop, José Manuel Lorca Planes during his homily praised the figure of our patron and has asked the Elder Brothers of the Brotherhood respect, affection and love to keep one of our greatest treasures, the Holy Week.
