Twenty years proclaiming Christmas Torrena (12/12/2019)

The most veteran amateur theater group in Spain, the Tejuba de Las Torres de Cotillas, has been organizing for two decades the act of reading the Christmas Cry of the town in the splendid setting of the Parochial Church of the Patroness of the Villa, Our Lady of the Salceda.

In this present edition 2019, specifically on the night of this Saturday, December 14, the scenic collective that founded over half a century ago Juan Baño has granted this Cabildo Superior de Cofradías, on the occasion of its Golden Weddings, the honor and the luck of proclaiming the Torreña Christmas and it is a task that the institution of passionate parades fills with gratitude and at the same time responsibility because it is not anything to put voice and letter to an event of such importance.

We are therefore ready to fulfill this task with humility, with the seriousness and solemnity that the task requires, with deep emotion, and we do it from a field that boasts the values ​​of great family, brotherhood and spirit of Christian devotion as is the world brother of Las Torres de Cotillas, a space of coexistence that traces its documented existence in the early seventeenth century, structured for half a century as an institution for the growing momentum of our local Holy Week and participatory environment where parents, grandparents and grandchildren, neighbors in general, with enthusiasm, effort and that push of personal and collective beliefs show in the streets, they also proclaim in a big way, in a multicolored universe of images and thrones, a catechism of events that make the Life of Jesus a school of improvement and humanism

And to this attitude of improvement of this world from the perspective of faith must also respond the celebration of Christmas and therefore of life.

This proclamation that we are going to pronounce picks up the ideas, the sounds, the words with which we will weave in a key of speech such a special party, the most beautiful Story ever told, that of the Birth of the Child God.

A fact of supreme magnitude that will vertebra in this gloss by way of Pregón, with warm and endearing pretense, the typical stamp of the Torreña Christmas, its memory and history, which have been combined with generations of men and women in a succession of customs, of uses practiced at the time of centuries and preserved and remembered on occasions such as this privileged and timely Christmas porch, of religious feeling, in which three beautiful nights shine as outstanding milestones, as our remembered Official Chronicler, Carlos Valcárcel, will call them: the call with all justice Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve and Reyes, which by the way no one has called it the night of illusion but it is for children and adults, with that advance of magic that is the Cavalcade, a party that has been bringing Sus Majesties from the East to Las Torres de Cotillas for four decades.

The brother brothers, the torreños that we make of the Holy Week profession of popular and massive faith, we will launch to the four winds, from the heart, pray for a Merry Christmas, in the broadest sense and feeling of fraternity.
