FEAST OF SAN ANTÓN, 17 JANUARY, MAZARRON

This Friday, January 17th the feast of San Anton is celebrated and, as is traditional, the shrine of the saint, located in the garden Pepa 'La Galla' district of San Isidro de Puerto de Mazarrón, host, once again, the popular blessing of animals at the doors of that temple.

The event will begin at 5pm when the Parish Priest of San Jose, Justo José Sánchez, leads the faithful few words to explain the meaning of this celebration. Then the priest will bless the animals with holy water to keep them safe from  disease for the rest of the year.


In addition, the women of Asociación de vecinos del Barrio de San Isidro are already preparing traditional donuts of the saint which will also be blessed during the ceremony and  then distributed free of charge to the audience, so that they will  have good health this year.
