Procession Of The Desolate In Bitonto
The statue of the Desolate is being processed from Bitonto Cathedral through the streets of the city in Bitonto, Italy, on March 22, 2024. With the traditional procession of the Desolate, the rites of Holy Week are coming into full swing. On Passion Friday, the effigy of Our Lady of Sorrows, symbolizing faith and mystery, dressed in black with a small sword piercing her heart as a metaphor for the pain of all mothers who lose a child, is parading through the streets of the city.
