2023 Fiesta de Cruz en Loisaida
2023-05-05 19:00 - 22:00
¡Unamos nuestras voces por la Fiesta de Cruz en Loisaida, 2023!
Las Fiestas de Cruz son una celebración devocional donde la Santísima Cruz es glorificada a través de canciones tradicionales de la religión católica que datan de la Edad Media y han sido celosamente conservadas por la sencilla devoción de sus fieles devotos caribeños.
En su forma tradicional, Las Fiestas de Cruz se celebran durante nueve noches consecutivas, en la cual la Cruz se erige en un altar en forma de escalera de nueve peldaños y cada noche la Cruz sube un peldaño acompañada por las oraciones y cánticos de sus devotos; hasta llegar a la cima en la novena noche.
Este simbólico ascenso de la Cruz nos recuerda la subida al Monte Calvario por Nuestro Señor Jesús, pero en la Cruz de Mayo se enfatiza el Misterio de la Resurrección y la Vida, por la cual nosotros también resurgimos de la oscuridad de la ignorancia a la luz de la sabiduría.
