The Cofradía de Oración en el Huerto stays in San Severiano

The Cofradía de Oración en el Huerto Will Remain in San Severiano

The cofradía de Oración en el Huerto has made the decision to stay in the church of San Severiano, although this will not be a permanent change. Although a move to the church of Santa Catalina had been planned, the situation has changed and the brotherhood will not accept the temporary transfer to the church of La Palma.

Two weeks ago, the cofradía de La Palma approved hosting the brotherhood until the works at Capuchinos are completed. However, due to the possible challenge by the cabildo and other factors, the cofradía de Oración en el Huerto has decided to remain at its current headquarters, which has been its home for over 50 years.

In addition, it has been reported that the works at the church of San Severiano will be delayed. The Ayuntamiento de Cádiz has scheduled a concert in this church for next December 17, which will further complicate the situation. Therefore, the brotherhood, led by Ignacio Robles, will remain in the temple of Extramuros until the extension works on the door of the church of Santa Catalina are completed.

The possibility of the brotherhood being able to celebrate the religious services in honor of Nuestra Señora de Gracia y Esperanza on December 18, coinciding with her feast day, remains up in the air. The community eagerly awaits a resolution on this matter.
