Holy Saturday Afternoon
DESCRIPTION
Although there are several Brotherhoods that carry out a small parade
with the Children's Thirds on the afternoon of Holy Wednesday, it is on the eve
of Easter Sunday when the children of Holy Week in Cieza have their great
Brotherhood party, with the joyful and massive parade of the Infantile Tercios.
Each Brotherhood brings out its children dressed in the Brotherhood's
tunic, who parade distributing candies followed by the small step, created
specifically so that their light weight can be carried on the shoulders of
those who, tomorrow, will have to carry the Steps of the Ciezana Holy Week.
When, through different itineraries, all the Brotherhoods come together
at the Esquina del Convento, the children's version of the Courtesy takes place
before an extraordinary crowd, with the Steps greeting each other with small
bows while the sweets rain down and the sound, mixed with each other, of joyful
parades.
Once the Meeting is over, the Brotherhoods continue to parade, now in order, but with the same joy, along the traditional itinerary until they are collected at the Casa de los Santos.
The party prior to the grand finale of Easter Sunday takes place on Saturday afternoon, where the absolute leading role corresponds to the children, who parade enthusiastically, truly happy, to have a space in Holy Week that is entirely theirs, without them being able to find in the national context a children's processional event of this caliber.
